In Georgia, a baseball team worker rescued a tiny kitten from traffic. Fans named him Chip-Purr Jones. Then, the team invited him to “throw out the first pitch” on a night when fans could bring their cats. Kindness always wins.🐱⚾

Justin Verlander just played his last game as an MLB pitcher. Instead of his manager pulling him from the game, his daughter ran out to meet him on the mound. Some sports moments feel like they belong in a movie. This is one of them. ❤️⚾

In India, an elephant calf just days old was swept 5km down a river. When forest workers and local fishermen spotted it drowning, they jumped into a tiny raft, pulled it from the water and brought it to its mother. This is how the baby elephant thanked his rescuers. 🐘❤️ Full story here: thedailygoods.com/tech/fishe…

In Germany, Oliver Riedl found 15 Roman silver coins in a field, but he had a problem. His metal detector kept beeping. He then uncovered more than 900 more coins spanning nearly 300 years of history. Now they're in a museum, where everyone can share in the discovery. 🪙

In Michigan, a 70-year-old man fell into a forest swamp, got stuck for 11 days, and shouted for help thousands of times. When two kayakers finally spotted him, they alerted rescuers and saved his life. A stranger to them. Someone's whole world to his family. Kindness wins. ❤️

This is Jack. He's 8, and he designed a cap Josh Allen wore at a Bills home game. He's one of eight young hospital patients whose artwork is becoming part of the quarterback's wardrobe. Sales help @GCHBuffalo hospital and the program has already raised over $140,000. ❤️

Terry Fox taught us what it means to never give up. That no matter how small you might feel, you can still make a difference. Terry Fox is the story of Canada. It’s the story of an underdog who won—and changed the world. ❤️

Today, Terry Fox Runs are held in more than 650 Canadian communities and in countries around the world. Together, they have raised more than $1 billion for cancer research. All in Terry’s name. All because one young man decided to try.

Less than three months later, the first Terry Fox Run was held. More than 300,000 people took part at 760 locations across Canada, raising $3.5 million for cancer research. It turned out to be just the beginning.

Terry spent his final months undergoing treatment after the cancer spread to his lungs. On June 28, 1981, he died at just 22 years old. But Canadians refused to let his mission die with him.

By February 1981, Terry’s dream had come true: more than $24 million had been raised—about $1 for every Canadian. He became the youngest Companion of the Order of Canada and was named Canada’s top athlete. But his hardest battle was still ahead.

By the time Terry stopped, he had raised $1.7 million for cancer research. But even though he could no longer run, his Marathon of Hope didn’t stop. Canadians kept donating. Days later, a national telethon raised millions more.

Terry had run close to 42 kilometres a day, often in excruciating pain and through rain, wind and snow. He stopped in more than 400 communities to explain why he was running. His days began at 4:30 a.m. and often didn’t end until 7 p.m.

Then, everything changed. The cancer came back in his lungs. On September 1, after 143 days and 5,373 kilometres, Terry was forced to end his run outside Thunder Bay, Ontario. But what he had already accomplished was almost unimaginable.

By June, Terry had reached Ontario, where he was greeted by government officials, athletes and cheering crowds. He was now running close to 42 kilometres—almost a full marathon—every day. And the entire country was beginning to follow his journey.

On April 12, 1980, Terry began the Marathon of Hope in St. John’s, dipping his artificial leg into the Atlantic Ocean. He ran through wind, rain and snow. At first, donations came slowly. Then, momentum began to build.
