Ryan! Michael Furdyk | Nov 3rd, 2002
Wow, this is a cool story. I've heard of him a few times but always missed the full scoop. This is a great interview/profile. Did you get his e-mail? You should e-mail him this story and get him to join TIG -- and nominate him as a featured member!

I found this very hard to digest. how do so many kids in the world not care about the things around them, yet 6 year old kids like Ryan care about places with no water like Africa. For a 6 year old to realize and understand that a lot of people can't take baths or drink clean fresh water. If understanding is so hard, then obviously doing something about it is even more difficult. This story basically tells me that youth can do a lot of things, if we were determined enough to do so. This is truly an amazing story. Even teenagers don't care about the World and et this little child does and he's barely in elementry school. This is hard to believe. Most teenagers wouldn't do chores to buy things for themselves, yet Ryan, a little boy of 6 years is working to change the world.The world would be unbelievabally sad without people like Ryan. I think that's particially the reason for To let students around the globe to know aboutb World Problems and to change the world. Youth will be the future decision-making people around the World. We all need to strive to make the world a better place. Ryan should be nominated because he's doing what we can all do but haven't even tried yet. I totally agree on this story. We should stop watching the T.V and get off our couches and do something good. Nice story Mike. Thanks for enlighting me. =]

I thought that this story was truly amazing to read. At such a young age, this boy Ryan has already accomplished so much that has changed so many people

This article is truly touching. The fact that a 6 years old boy has such a determination and that he has actually been able to accomplish his goal. It was not easy for him to earn the money. He did chores, such as taking out the garbage, washing dishes, and etc. He might have found it really disgusting, but he continued doing it, because he knows the Africans really need his help and that he would like to give the African a better living. It inspires me very much of how Ryan as a young little boy can understand so much, and be so persistent. I noticed how selfish some people are, like for example if one day your brother had a test, he couldn’t wash the dishes, and he asked you to help him, I think most of you will say no. It’s also very fascinating how much money a 6 years old can earn in 7 years. I don’t think any of the teenagers have that much money right now. I guess how much you give, is how much you get in return. This article has inspired me to try to make a difference in everyone’s lives. Not only will it be able to help them, but afterwards you will feel happy inside you too.
Thanks, Mike! Tusye Agustina | Jan 4th, 2004
I'm speechless...
Just wanna say thanks to Mike for sharing the story. Ryan's so wonderful and I don't think we have many of people who care about others just like Ryan. And I wish I could get the chance to know him...God bless him and all the people who care for others.
