Feel good story!

What do most people do when they loose their job?  Well I think they would save their money and budget themselves to make it through some tough times.  Well not Reed Sandridge, he gives money to the needy.  He decided to give away ten dollars a day for a year to random people he doesn't know, story here.  His mom told him you need to give back when times are the toughest, so he is.  He is using some savings and unemployment to get by himself and help others.  He doesn't look for a specific person to help, some have jobs some don't, some are street performers.  He started a blog, here, to tell all about the people he helps.  His blog also has a page where you can lend a helping hand as well, some of the people that he helps could use even more help on top of the $10, like a new pair of shoes or a suit to wear to an interview.  His efforts seem like a whole job in itself, but I hope he finds a job so he can afford to keep giving for the whole year, and maybe longer too. Go Reed go!
