Sami if you would open a Bank account where people can send Money to help out with your effort to help others. Every Penny helps. Think about it.

What a wonderful way to start a new day by reading this uplifting story. The news is full of bad news so its great to hear of Sami who is showing charity and the pure love of Christ. Way to go young man and keep up the great work. You must have wonderful parents to teach you to love and serve others. Have a wonderful Senior year.

Its rare that a positive story gets printed about something associated with West High School. Might I suggest that you continue to look at all the positives associated with this great school in the future. Good on ya Sami and Victory, Victory to the Panthers!

but just watch as the day progresses and see how many people comment on this story compared to the depressing, crime-ridden stories. It's no wonder newspapers focus on the negative.

As they say, people only go to the car races to watch the crashes.

What a remarkable young man! Congratulations on your efforts to help those villages. I agree with Helga - you should set up a bank account where the public can donate to. our local animal shelter accepts donations through PayPal - perhaps that is an option?

I am a graduate of West High. This story makes me proud to be a panther. Way to go! Thanks for following through on such a worthy cause. I know how much work something like this entails. I am impressed with this young man's character.

Oh ya! That's my uncle right there! He's always helping people, doing fundraisers and volunteer work. And he's trying to make a group of people all over the country and then go and help Bangladesh again.
