When I drove to work yesterday, I met a traffic jam. As I looked out of my window, a handsome young man was walking on the street. He was walking towards the bridge. There were some homeless men with their cups around there. The young man went to one of them. He brought out some money from his pocket, said a few words to him and put the money into his cup. He continued to walk and then saw another homeless man. He stopped for a minute, said a few words and then gave the man a candy.

And then he saw the next homeless man. He was shivering because of coldness. The young man now stopped for a second and gave his scarf to him. He then said goodbye to him with a big smile and went away in the snow. At that moment, I was in tears. I gave this young man my best wishes with love and blessings.

     Claude and Louris are “giraffes”. So are police offices Hankins and Pearson. There men and women don’t look like giraffes; they look like you and me. Then, why do people call them “giraffes”?

     A giraffe, they say, is an animal that sticks its neck out, can see places far away and has a large heart. It lives a quiet life and moves about in an easy and beautiful way. In the same way, a “giraffe” can be a person who likes to “stick his or her neck out” for other people, always watches for future happenings, has a warm heart for people around, and at the same time lives a quiet and beautiful life himself or herself.

     “The Giraffe Project” is a 10-year-old group which finds and honors “giraffe” in the US and in the world. The group wants to teach people to do something to build a better world. The group members believe that a person shouldn’t draw his and her head back; instead, they tell people to “stick their neck out” and help others. Claude and Louris, Hankins and Pearson are only a few of the nearly 1,000 “giraffes” that the group found and honored.

     Claude and Louris were getting old and they left their work with some money that they saved for future use. One day, however, they saw a homeless man looking for a palace to    keep warm and they decided that should “stick their neck out” and give him some help. Today, they lived in Friends’House, where they invite twelve homeless people to stay every night.

     Police offices Hankins and Parson work in a large city, They see crlmes every day and their work is sometimes dangerous. They work hard for their money. However, these two men put their savings together and even borrowed money to star an educational center to teach young people in a poor part of the city. Hankins and Pearson are certainly “giraffes”.
