When 18-year-old Antonio Gwynn Jr. saw the damage from protests in his hometown of Buffalo, N.Y., he grabbed a broom, bought some trash bags and started cleaning the streets by himself. It was 2am on a Monday morning. When an organized group of neighbors arrived later that morning to start clearing the damage, they found that Gwynn had already done most of the work. Hearing Gwynn's story on the news, 27-year-old Matt Block decided to gift him his prized 2004 Mustang. Gwynn was shocked -- not only by the kindness, but the coincidence that his mom drove a red Mustang before she passed away in 2018. When local insurance agency businessman, Bob Briceland, heard all this, he gifted Gwynn a year of free auto insurance. And as if that wasn't enough, Medaille College in Buffalo offered him a full scholarship upon hearing his plans to go to trade school in order to save for college. Briceland said, "We just need to get together ... and show people how there's so many good people here."
