This is a fantastic story. Some of you may have read it before, but
it is still relevant in today’s world where this kindness is repeated over
and over again in many forms, some of them very small. It’s the kindness that really
matters and brings about results.
This is a true story that had happened in
1892 at Stanford University. It's moral is still relevant today.
A young, 18 year old student was struggling
to pay his fees. He was
an orphan, and not knowing where to turn for money, he came up with
a bright idea. A friend and he decided to host a musical concert on
campus to raise money for their education.
They reached out to the great pianist Ignacy J. Paderewski. His
manager demanded a guaranteed fee of $2,000 for the piano recital. A
deal was struck. And the boys began to work to make the concert a
success.
