In early December, our KCBS Radio reporter and Berkeley-ite Jim Taylor brought us a story that proves that it pays to be kind.

After a KCBS Radio listener heard Taylor's story on the air about a special needs teacher from Berkeley winning the inaugural Chris Kindness Award, they made a generous donation to keep the generosity going. 

In this episode of Bay Current, producer Mallory Somera spoke with the founder of the program, Alan Ross, who’s also a professor at the Haas School of Business at UC Berkeley.
