 We often hear stories during the holiday season that touch our heart and make us feel that there is still some good in the world and this is certainly one of them. NBA star Dwayne Wade who runs a foundation that helps underprivileged kids decided to help out a family from Florida who's home was accidentally burned down. His Wade's World foundation will make payments on the family's home to get them back on their feet.
Here is what Wade had to say: "That's what I try to teach my kids," said Wade, whose foundation has hosted several charity events this holiday season, mostly for needy children. "It's not about what you're going to receive -- it's what you can give to others from what you've received."
Wade's other holiday events this year included a party for 350 children on Monday, and hosting 100 kids at Tuesday night's Heat game against the Golden State Warriors. He also donated $10,000 to each of three children's organizations, but said he was particularly touched by being able to assist the Smith family.
