A struggling young mother fell asleep with her baby on a CEO’s shoulder during a long flight, exhausted and unaware. When she finally woke up, she was stunned by what he had quietly done while she slept.

“So what do you do, Adrian?”

He smiled slightly.

“I work in nonprofit development.”

“That sounds important.”

“Sometimes.”

He reached into his jacket pocket and handed her a card.

Elena glanced down.

Her eyes widened.

Adrian Cole
Founder & CEO
Cole Foundation International

She looked up in shock.

“You’re that Adrian Cole?”

“The same one.”

“Why didn’t you tell me?”

“Because you needed help from a stranger,” he said gently, “not from a foundation.”
