Please visit www.nytimes.com/Kristof and see Nicholas Kristof’s piece last Friday, March 22, 2019. After Nick had reported the story of an 8-year-old homeless boy who had just become the chess champion of his age group in New York State, the response of his readers exemplified our true American spirit (esp. compassion & generosity), so well known around the world. Within a week, the boy and family have a home and some financial security. In response to the overwhelming generosity of Kristof’s readers, who raised over $200,000 for them, the family has decided to not use any of the money on themselves, but, instead, on other African immigrants who need assistance. This quality is what has made our nation great! Help me give the Adewumi family a belated welcome. And Nick, thank you for bringing this story to us! I have been your fan for years.
