12-year old boy gives up his $1,000 to save his school and gets paid back in pinstripes

I think even Dr. Rub can appreciate Steinbrenner's actions here.



An Arkansas boy was saving for a trip to see his favorite team the Yankees.  He saved up $1,000.  He donated that entire amount in order to save his school, and his $1,000 helped.



It was lumped with $399,000, and helped to save the school from a merge.



Steinbrenner gets wind of this and not only replaces the boy's $1,000, but gives him an all expense paid trip and tour of Yankee Stadium.



Kudos, Mr. Steinbrenner!
