David Albright is a 13-year-old boy. He helps people who need food by baking muffins.

“The fact that a young person of his age would bake muffins himself proves (*) his character,” said Toni Dolan, an officer of a center that helps the homeless. “He knows everyone isn’t living the life that he and his friends at school enjoy. To the people who are down, it means a lot to them,” he added.

“He dislikes drawing others’ attention,” said Frank Lacerenza, principal (校長) of David’s school. “For the last several years, he’s been collecting Halloween costumes for kids in the city,” Lacerenza said. “He’s silent, so most people don’t see the good things that he does. They are acts of true, unselfish compassion (無私的同情).”

It all began when David was 8. “It was the day after Christmas,” David said. “It was snowing heavily. We were driving past the homeless shelter (避難所). We saw a man sleeping in an old truck. He was trying to keep the snow from coming in through a broken window. We found out how they needed muffins, coffee, clothes and so on. I thought that would be a nice thing to do, so I started making muffins.”

Since then he’s been baking 24 muffins a week for the shelter. And after the muffins are ready, his mom gives him a lift to hand them out.
