I was reading some news stories on CNN and I came across this story and thought wow now why can't there be more stories like this in the news?! There is so much negativity that this really brightend my day up :-) I usually dread reading or watching the news I've not really cared lately. More stories like this need to be reported!

WITI-TV, MILWAUKEE - Most people don't like to shovel snow, but kids in one Milwaukee neighborhood were loving it. Under the newest blanket of snow, FOX6 found a group of kids making one north side neighborhood feel warm. They cleared almost an entire block for free!With wind whipping and the snow swirling, the corner of 40th and Hope felt like a long way from home. Three boys braved the elements so their neighbors didn't have to.Rasheed Harris, his younger brother Koran Harris, and their cousin Rahagee Burns began bright and early. Rasheed tells FOX 6 "We started from my grandma's house and just came all the way down the block." They were having so much fun before they knew it, they had shoveled nearly an entire block.These boys never asked for a penny, and view shoveling as more than a chore. Rasheed said, "We're just out here doing good deeds. No charge, just shoveling all the snow." Rahagee says, "I want to be a little more helpful, all around good Samaritan."Neighbor Lawrence Bibbs was out with his snow blower, the boys shoveled his sidewalk anyway. Another neighbor Venessa Brown came home to a surprise, "I found my walkway shoveled! I think it's great, you don't see a lot of kids doing this."After a long day, it was clear that these three boys and their shovels moved a lot more than snow. "It just feels good doing good deeds for other people.", says Rahagee.One neighbor says she's going to pay the kids anyway, she told FOX 6 they saved her an hour's worth of work. They say it wasn't work, it was fun.
