Smiles Through Art is now creating and supporting art projects in hospitals and healthcare insti

On October 25th, 2013, USA Today reported that after he helped a female shopper fend off an attacker in the store parking lot, the 30-year-old employee of Walmart was fired for breaching the national chain’s anti-violence policy. The incident, which happened at a Walmart store in a suburb of Detroit, Michigan, touched off a firestorm of criticism on social media outlets as people expressed their outrage at the unjust treatment of a man many lauded as a hero. Thankfully, common sense prevailed when in response to the legions of complaints Walmart offered the man his job back. (http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/10/2
