I've been running a small orphanage in my hometown ever since my parents passed.
But with donations drying up, I've been praying for a miracle to keep the doors open before we lose everything.
Last week I sold my mother's wedding ring just to put food on the table.
Tonight, during a horrible thunderstorm, I was tucking the kids into bed when I heard banging on the front door.
When I opened it, a man was standing there covered in rain, "Would you mind if I stay until the storm passes?"
Immediately, I recognized him, it was the billionaire from the news who had just purchased a quarter of the town.
He looked around the room, then back at me, and asked if this was the building on 7th and Maple.
I nodded.
He quietly told me this is the building they’re scheduled to demolish next month.
Suddenly, one of my girls walked up to him and tugged his sleeve.
She handed him a crayon drawing of a rainbow and said, "You looked sad. So I made this for you."
He knelt down slowly and stared at the drawing, then looked up at me and growled,
"This building isn't going anywhere."
