Sara Ziad, St. Petersburg: “When my tire went flat and I couldn’t get the nuts off the wheel, and I was stuck and I didn’t want to drive home with a flat tire. Someone in the neighborhood came and changed my whole tire for me even though I had been out there for a whole hour trying to do it. He changed it in five minutes, which was crazy.”

Samantha Dill, Tampa: “When I went to Japan and I had a really bad sunburn, I was looking for aloe and I couldn’t find any anywhere and at one point, there was a language barrier, but I asked the convenient store clerk, I showed her my back. She ended up walking me out of the store and pointing me in the direction of another store, a grocery store and was like go up the stairs and it’s right over here.”

Ainsley Bright, Colorado: “Give me five gallons of gas on the side of the road when my car broke down because I didn’t fill it with enough gas. So, I got to the gas station.”

Corina Squire, Tampa: “Compliment my earrings and what that stranger didn’t know was that I had just started making my own earrings.”
