"It is in giving that we receive." --Saint Francis of Assisi
Unemployed Man Gives Away $10 a Day
For many of us, giving away money is last thing we'd do after losing our job. For Reed Sandridge, it's a "journey of altruistic giving". After getting laid off last year as a director of a nonprofit group in Washington D.C, the 36-year-old decided to start an experiment in giving. Every day, Sandridge walks up to a stranger and gives away $10. So far, he's handed out close to $1,200! He also interviews the recipient and posts their story on his blog, "Year of Giving".
BE THE CHANGE
Give a gift to a complete stranger.
