1) Concentration Camps, Death Marches — and Facebook

"Amid tears, laughter and hugs, three Holocaust survivors — childhood friends from the same hometown of Hungary — reunited for the first time in 65 years. Though they have fond memories of playing together, their strongest bonds developed in 1945, as they were struggling to survive a three-week death march from the Russian front to a concentration camp in Austria," began the Jewish Week news report.

For 65 years, one of the friends had been trying to locate the other who had saved his life. After private investigators had been unsuccessful, a 15-year old nephew got involved and took his quest to Facebook. 2) Random Act of Kindness for 93 Dollars Sparks $100,000 In Spontaneous Donating

A random act of kindness in the check-out aisle at Trader Joe's market — a stranger stepping forward to pay her $207 bill — led to a payback which left $93 extra for charity.  A Facebook discussion propelled the original Samaritan to  give the extra money to a hunger charity, which eventually led to an avalanche of like donations started pouring in from Facebook friends, eventually totaling $100,000 in spontaneous giving.

The video and inspiring story was shared worldwide . . . and on the Good News Network.

3) Woman Recruits A Facebook Army to Save 7000 Tiny Gulf Coast Crabs

In the months since the BP oil spill, Leanne Sarco, a ranger at the wildlife preserve in the Gulf of Mexico along the fragile barrier islands of Louisiana, recruited an army of volunteers to collect thousands oil-drenched hermit crabs, cleaning and releasing them into a saltwater marsh about 15 miles inland.

Wildlife officials didn't think they could save the tiny creatures, but Leanne knew them to be critical to ecosystems. So, she turned  to Facebook and put out a call to the world. Strangers soon began to arrive, who came to help, some even sleeping on her couch for weeks. . . Story and links on Good News Network.
