I was approached by a young man who said he needed help getting back to his home town. I won't tell you the town but it was a few states away. His family was in some form of emergency and didn't have the funds to get there and because of the emergency, they couldn't send the funds either. He showed what money he had, about $70, but needed an additional $150 for the ticket. So, while wondering if this was a scam or not I decided it wasn't because he did come up with $70. I drove him to Greyhound, bought the ticket for him instructing him to hold on to his money and even put another $100 in his pocket. I've never seen or heard from that young man again but I think he was being honest and I'm glad I did what I did.

I was going somewhere on a bus in puyallup wa. I blind man was asking how to get to social security office. Having just been there I knew hed never find it. So I got off and led him into the place. As we walked I learned hed been blinded as a result of a mugging and every so many years he had to go in to social security and show them he was still blind
When I was 17, I had a job at the mall to have people take surveys. This little boy was wandering around the mall alone so I kept him and had him sit down next to me so no one would try to take him and a mall cop cane over to find out what to do with the kid. Two older boys said that the little kid was their cousin. When I asked them his name, they didn’t know it. I asked them that the kid is supposedly their cousin but they didn’t know his name? Luckily the parents came back in for their child.
This is the only deed that stood out to me because there was a little boy who was kidnapped and killed by two older boys in the UK

Yes, there was guy hitchhiking with a flat tire. He couldn't speak English, but I gave him a ride to a gas station. I actually did this another time as well, with two guys in the same situation.
Just for future reference, that wasn’t the best option.
By lifting her you may have further damaged her back, if it was damaged during the accident.
(I was an EMT.)Yes, but nothing really extraordinary, things like helping a woman getting her stroller on the bus for example.
