Celebrity chef José Andrés was one of the first people to use his restaurants to give out free food when COVID hit.  And after the chaos at the Capitol this week, he stepped up again.  He handed out a bunch of free food to cops and first responders in D.C.…….. A janitor at a hospital near L.A. has raised a bunch of money by asking coworkers to donate their spare change, even if it’s just a penny.  In week one, he raised $1,400 for the Boys & Girls Club.  And it inspired a new payroll deduction program at the hospital.  Workers can now have 50 cents to $5 automatically deducted from their paychecks.….. And finally……….a 13-year-old girl near Detroit won an essay contest put on by Petco that came with a $50,000 grand prize.  And now she’s donating ALL of it to her local cat shelter.
