inspiring exerpts from the news article…
“Each person has a hidden hero within, you just have to look inside you and search it in your heart, and be the hero to the next one in need,” Peñaflorida.
… Serve, serve well, serve others above yourself and be happy to serve… Peñaflorida.

“We do something that’s not done—shine a light on everyday people that do extraordinary work,” Walton.
