The idea that the world is inherently good may be challenged at times, but it’s important to remember that acts of kindness and selflessness still exist. We believe good people outnumber bad ones, and we have compiled a list of inspiring stories that demonstrate pure selflessness. These individuals have shown that even in the face of adversity, it’s possible to make a positive impact on the world and restore our faith in humanity.
