This will help you appreciate the good in people  - - - In 1907, a German Jewish family named Wertheim left Germany for London, where they acquired a new home and a new surname. Their son, now Sir Nicholas George Winton was born two years later.   In 1938, Winton by then a successful banker, was about to travel to Switzerland for a ski vacation when he changed his mind and headed for Prague instead to help a friend who was assisting refugees. There he single-handedly established an organization to aid Jewish children from Czechoslovakia separated from their families by the Nazis. From an improvised office in his hotel room he took advantage of a newly passed British law permitting entry into England of refugees younger than 17 if they had a place to stay and a warranty of 50 pounds sterling for a return ticket to their country of origin. Winton found homes for 669 children, many of whose parents perished in the death camps.   During the war he served as a pilot in the Royal Air Force. A short, but moving BBC video of a reunion Sir Nicholas, a robust 101, recently had with many of his “children.”  http://www.givesmehope.com/view/GMH/50245
