How do you go from feeling like you have no money to some money? The better question is, how do you go from not much money to rich in a different way?
Well, leave it to a smart guy with a noble cause to figure out the answer to this question. Brandon Andress, a normal Joe (that is anything but normal) decided along with his family to raise money for the poor in Haiti. I was tipped off to Brandon’s charitable idea from a friend. He is trying to teach his kids what “thankful” really means. Thankful means that you have a meal tonight. Thankful means that your 401(k) is a luxury. Thankful means that you HELP OTHERS. And that’s what Brandon and his family are doing.
Feel free to check out Brandon’s donation page. I personally have donated. There is no better way to give thanks than to give. Congrats Brandon. You and your family are really cool.
