Ask Paul B: GIVING ROCKS!!!

#ad▼

Dear Paul B,

I am known for my generosity, but I was just floored by an associate in my office. A man with three kids and a terrific wife was stricken recently with a debilitating illness. He has been at home suffering and I can’t tell you how horrible I felt. I work with 45 people in our office and I began a fund to help out “Ray” and his family.

I have collected about $5600 so far, and our clients have even kicked in (especially mine.) I started it off with $500 and my siblings and Grandparents kicked in over $1400 as well. My siblings struggle, but managed to call their friends and neighbors and everyone is contributing. This is a wonderful holiday treat for this family. I only know Ray for 7 months, but I know he and his family is everyday people, and I was there for them.

Billy

Dear BIlly,

You are demonstrating to everyone what the holidays are all about! Love your story, your generosity and the fantastic response from so many people, even those who don’t know Ray. I encourage everyone to help out anyone that they can, especially the seniors. Many people have had a tough year, both economically and physically, so anything that we can provide for them is much appreciated and will make a huge difference. Billy, you are my hero and I am proud of you and your “little helpers.” Keep up the great work!! You have set a great example to everyone who knows you.

Paul B.
