We\u2019ve landed in a cold, dark winter in the early 1900s<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Look around\u2026 this place is pretty rough. People are hungry, cold, and don\u2019t have anywhere warm to sleep. But just when things are looking sad \u2014 someone amazing shows up.<\/p>\n

His name is William Bromham<\/strong> \u2014 and he\u2019s not rich or famous. But he starts helping people! He gives out hot soup<\/strong>, dry socks<\/strong>, and beds for people with nowhere to go<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

And when he gets older, his son Ivor<\/strong> does the same. They become legends around here. People say, \u201cThe Bromhams will help you.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

They\u2019re not superheroes from a comic book. They\u2019re real-life heroes<\/strong> with big hearts.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udcac STAMP IDEA<\/strong>: Draw a big bowl of soup or a pair of warm socks \u2014 a symbol of kindness!<\/p>\n

Oh! And guess what? The building behind me \u2014 Matthew\u2019s House<\/strong> \u2014 still does all those things today! Food, showers, kindness\u2026 It\u2019s like the Bromhams are still here, helping through new people.<\/p>\n

WHOOSH \u2014 let\u2019s head off again! The next stop is all about fire, smoke, and a man who built a town with copper…[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][nectar_global_section id=”186″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
