We could all use some great news right now and some stories of people helping each other. Reader’s Digest recently asked for stories of people helping each other around America and they voted on the best place to live based on those stories. They received thousands of entries, and each story is sweeter and more touching than the next. There was a  “Nicest Places” Advisory Council” which included famous journalist and author Mitch Album.

A few of the stories can be found about Alabama, Alaska, and Arizona. There are many stories here that will really inspire readers and perhaps help others to come up with thoughtful ways to help each other in their communities.

NBC has done a great job of consolidating their charity news into one location. A daily or weekly glance here can help people to keep up with the latest in American charity news and to see what others are doing in these critical times.

This article, for instance, is a fascinating look at how helping others can actually help you. Whether it’s financial assistance or helping others in various ways, there are real benefits to getting out of your own situation and looking for ways to help others.
