Sergio Gutierrez Benitez, 80, faced addiction from an early age, experimenting with drugs like marijuana, cocaine, and heroin by the time he was 12.
+
As his addiction worsened, he turned to crime, stealing to support his habit. By 18, he was deeply involved in a criminal lifestyle, even working as a circus clown and actor, but spending all his earnings on drugs.
+
Eventually, a moment of crisis led him to seek redemption. After being turned away by a priest when he attempted to confess, he pursued rehabilitation and entered the seminary.
+
His mission expanded after witnessing someone die in his arms. Father Benitez dedicated his life to serving the poor, particularly orphans. However, financing an orphanage was challenging.
+
That is why the priest started to wrestle. He wrestled town to town, earning money to sustain his orphanage while keeping his identity hidden.
+
Though he initially planned to wrestle for only a few years, Fray Tormenta continued for 23, finally retiring in 2000. Over the years, his orphanage, La Casa Hogar de los Cachorros de Fray Tormenta, provided shelter and opportunities to over 2,000 children
+
Many of them became professionals including lawyers, doctors, accountants, priests, and wrestlers.

Actor Michael Sheen was inspired to take action after meeting a woman who mentioned steelworkers in distress following the closure of a major blast furnace, which led to widespread job losses.
+
In response, Sheen has cleared £1 million ($1.29 million) of debt for 900 people in South Wales using £100,000 ($129,000) of his own money to help those struggling with credit card debt, overdrafts, and car loans.
+
Beyond tackling debt, Sheen is also self-financing a new national theater in Wales after National Theatre Wales shut down in 2024 due to a £1.6 million ($1.96 million) funding cut.
