This Academy Award winning actress who likes to pretend she is foreign born even though she isn't also likes to pretend she didn't film the first few movies of her career. Anyway, she was being a great mom and on a field trip with her kids to a museum when she noticed that another group of kids from another school only had ten kids at the museum while most of the other schools had fifty kids or more. It turns out that the school district had no funding to have school buses take kids on field trips so it was up to individual parents to arrange for rides and carpooling. So, our actress spoke to someone at the school and the next thing you know the school had its very own $250K school bus to take kids to activities. She also paid for several parents to get certified as school bus drivers.

Like her or hate her, that was a nice thing for her to do
ReplyDeleteReally nice thing for her to do, especially as it was not in the press to she did not use it for publicity...
ReplyDeleteThat's great.
ReplyDeleteThat's nice of her to do that, I have to say I'm very impressed.
ReplyDeleteCitizen of the Day.
ReplyDeleteAnd let's try to have at least two "kindnesses" on Sundays.
Wow. Things like this are one of the few reasons I'd ever want to be rich. I guess all of us can do more humble stuff, but do we?
ReplyDeleteWe can only try! But nice to see a good word about Nicole Kidman for once.
ReplyDeleteNice of her to do that :)
ReplyDeleteThat actually warms my cold, dead heart.
ReplyDelete🖤
DeleteGod bless you Nic.
ReplyDeleteAwesome. It's the kind of thing I'd try to do if I had tons of money.
ReplyDeleteThat is fantastic, good on her.
ReplyDeleteBut 'Dead Calm' is the best movie she ever made!
ReplyDeleteShe made a few before that, Bush Christmas and BMX Bandits are the forgetables.
ReplyDeleteI love Nicole!
ReplyDeleteGuess it wasn't in Nashville?
ReplyDeleteI hope that was $250k for busES. Very nice of her regardless.
