15+ Kind-Hearted People Who Make the World a Better Place to Live In

It’s easy to lose hope when there’s negativity looming all around us in our daily lives. But thanks to some of the kindest souls that exist on this planet, we realize that it’s not all that bad a place to live in after all. These generous people can be baristas who write good day messages for you on your coffee cup or police officers that help injured dogs in the rain.

We at Bright Side have mad respect for such heroes and are honored to highlight more of them below as they continue to restore our faith in humanity, good deed by good deed.
