A true Olympian

[UglyBear]

There’s a lady javelin thrower from Poland who got the silver medal.
Then she auctioned off the medal to help a sick kid.

No big show, no parade, no political statements. Just an awesome human being doing a good deed.
Beautiful inside and out.

So pretty. Inside and out. Thanks for posting. I would have never known about this.

The winning bidder returned the medal to her after making payment so it's a really nice feel-good story.

I wonder if she will get fined. It's illegal to sell the medal. Nice that she did something good with it though.
