Here is one I was just talking about with my friend @benadapt
There is a guy named Geza in my small town that everyone knows. He is an immigrant and has dedicated his sole existance since arriving in Canada to helping refugees find a place not only in Canada, but in our community. I have no idea how he does what he does and makes a living because it is all volunteer work.
That is a shot at an event he put on to bring the community together with some of the refugees he has helped land. They love the country but REALLY love getting to know the people in a friendly and safe social setting.
It is nice not only to know he dedicates his life to helping with the safety and happiness of others, but he goes that extra mile to have them become part of the community.
Here is a shot of some of the folks he has helped. It is uplifting as hell to see their smiling faces but even moreso when they organize themselves to visit the local parks and help clean up litter to give back.
The best part in my book is that these are driven, smart and successful people looking for a place to be safe and prosperous. Invariably, they don't come sit and be safe. They work like mad and become successful and never stop paying forward thew effort that brought hem here.
So awesome and inspiring. So close to home.
I suppose I should just create a post of my own but @perceptualflaws is just so awesome and the story will uplift more people being here with his legions of followers. Thanks for doing what you do here
As you said man: “Awesome and inspiring.”
Brilliant submission here my friend and sorry for the late reply but I've been back and forth helping a friend move house! There are some truly amazing people out there and this man is a testament to that fact .. equally, it shows that we're often surrounded by inspirational characters such as Geza that never obtain the recognition they so richly deserve .. thank you for bringing him to our attention.
Helping a friend move house is pretty noble as well unless you demand as much beer as I do!
Ha luckily for him I don't drink lol .. Just to say thank you for bringing this inspirational man to our attention, you got my vote and have won the competition. :D
