Because every time there is a story on the news about a kid's bike stolen, or a family that lost everything in a fire because they didn't have insurance; there is a follow up story a day or two later about how generous Calgarians came to the rescue.
I don't mind the kid getting a new bike- my thinking is that if you involve the news the story is probably legit. A Kijiji ad does not have the same credibility. While it would be nice if somebody was to help them; I would also recommend a little bit of caution.
