More “Good News” Stories from the Coronavirus Outbreak – Friday Edition
Here are a few more good news stories from the outbreak . . .
1. Two college students in L.A. used their spring break to create a nonprofit called The FarmLink Project that helps farmers donate unsold food to food banks. Their first donation was 11,000 eggs, and they picked them up in a rented truck. Now they’ve got a team of 2,000 people behind them, and have donated over 2 million pounds of food.
2. High school seniors all over the country are participating in drive-by and socially distanced graduations this weekend. Reuters posted a round-up of over 30 photos from events that have already happened.
3. The healthcare industry recently added two new doctors to its ranks. A mother and daughter named Cynthia and Jasmine Kudji BOTH just graduated from medical school. And they’re doing their residencies at the same hospital in Louisiana.
4. A 9-year-old kid in Kenya named Stephen Wamukota built an ingenious machine out of wood that lets people in his village wash their hands without touching the sink. There’s a pedal you step on that tilts a jug of water. And last week, he received an award for it from the president of Kenya.
