"The ache for home lives in all of us. The safe place where we can go as we are and not be questioned."

My House Is Your House

My House Is Your House
The way attorney and UCLA lecturer Tony Tolbert figures it: you don't have to have money to be generous. Tony became inspired by Kevin and Hannah Salwen, who sold their 6,500 square foot home, and donated $800,000 to charity. He decided to loan his home to Felicia Dukes, a single parent of four, for a full year. After giving birth to her fourth child, Felicia fell behind on payments, and became homeless. Thanks to Tony's generosity, Felicia could recuperate financially and emotionally. As for Tony? He's planning to donate his home again to another family in need.
