Headlines circulated around the world when the open fire of an antisemetic gunman took the lives of her father and 14-year old son, leaving her as a grieving mother and daughter with a decision to make. And in the face of unimaginable tragedy, Mindy Corporon chose to respond with - what she calls - courageous kindness, a rare form of bravery that cannot be deterred by pain. Despite her soul shattering loss, she has spent the last seven and a half years making each new day a little better than the one before it, uniting people in kindness and shining her light on peace.
