Caring for others

In the video, a middle school football team called Olivet Eagles in Olivet, Michigan wanted to make a dream come true for a sick kid in their school. The sick kid always wanted to be in a football team and make a touchdown, so the football team decided to make that dream come true. In a game, the sick kid played with the team and their competition, the whole team surrounded the sick kid so he can make that touchdown.

It is really nice to see that there is still some people who care about others other than themselves. When the team helped him they all felt good about it.
