3. A guy in the U.K. has been raising money for a mental health charity by running to local bars every day to see if they’re open yet . . . even though he knows they’re still locked down. So far, he’s raised about $3,000.
4. A retired teacher in Italy passed away in December at 96. And it turns out she left over $30 MILLION to two hospitals and other charities. No one’s sure how she amassed so much money, but it’s possible she inherited it.
