Donald Trump is often recognized for his political and business achievements, but his legacy includes numerous acts of kindness that remain largely under the radar. These lesser-known good deeds paint a fuller picture of a man who has gone out of his way to help others, even when the spotlight wasn’t on him.
Helping a Hero: Wesley Autrey
One remarkable story involves Wesley Autrey, known as the “Subway Hero” after saving a man who fell onto subway tracks in New York City in 2007. Autrey bravely jumped onto the tracks to shield the man from an oncoming train. Upon hearing about Autrey’s heroism, Trump was moved by his courage and gifted him $10,000 as a personal recognition of his bravery. This was not a widely publicized act but showed Trump’s appreciation for extraordinary deeds of everyday citizens.
Trump Visits with Liam, an 8-year old boy with rare brain disorder
In a heartwarming moment, former President Donald Trump surprised eight-year-old Liam, who is bravely battling a rare brain disorder. During a special visit, Trump presented Liam with a gift that brought joy and excitement to the young boy and his family. This touching encounter highlights Trump’s commitment to connecting with children facing health challenges and showcases the power of hope and encouragement in difficult times for all Americans. Liam’s story serves as an inspiring reminder of resilience and the positive impact of support from our future President while highlighting Trump’s character.
Providing Life-Saving Transport
Trump’s generosity also extended to those in critical need of medical help. In 1988, when a young boy named Andrew Ten required urgent medical care in New York, Trump offered his private jet to fly the boy and his family from Los Angeles. This intervention undoubtedly saved the boy’s life.
Donating to Veteran Causes
Trump has consistently supported veterans through large-scale donations and personal involvement. During his 2016 presidential campaign, he raised and donated $1 million of his own money to veterans’ organizations. Additionally, his administration implemented the VA MISSION Act in 2018, expanding access to healthcare for veterans and allowing them to seek private care outside of VA hospitals.
Supporting Cancer Research and Healthcare
Trump’s charitable contributions have extended to healthcare, particularly cancer research. Over the years, he has quietly donated money to institutions like St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital to support essential research and treatment for cancer patients, especially children.
Honoring First Responders
Following the 9/11 attacks, Trump made efforts to honor first responders. He allowed emergency workers to use his properties near Ground Zero as staging grounds for rescue and recovery efforts, and worked to pass a bill while president to make sure 9/11 victims’ families receive permanent funding.
Additional Acts of Kindness
-
Securing the Release of a U.S. Marine: In 2014, Trump helped secure the release of former Marine Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi from a Mexican prison after seven months of imprisonment, sending him a $25,000 check to assist with his transition back to civilian life.
-
Rewarding a Hero Bus Driver: In 2013, a bus driver in Buffalo prevented a woman from jumping off a bridge. Trump recognized the driver’s bravery with a $10,000 check.
Conclusion
Donald Trump’s lesser-known acts of kindness reveal a legacy that extends beyond politics and business. From aiding individuals in need to supporting veterans and healthcare initiatives, Trump has shown a commitment to making a difference in people’s lives. These quiet acts of generosity reflect a compassionate side of Trump that often goes unnoticed but has undoubtedly left a lasting impact on many Americans.
