Everyday Heroes: The Giving Pledge

This warms my heart.

The richest in America are encouraging others to give. It is called the giving pledge. Essentially, they are asking the billionaires in America to give away the majority of their wealth to charitable causes.

You can read more about it here: www.thegivingpledge.org

Props to Bill and Melinda Gates and Warren Buffet for leading this effort.

The wealthiest individuals or families have the resources to make a HUGE impact. Imagine what would happen if they continued to give generously...imagine.

NOTE: the Everyday Heroes series on this blog is an idea to share stories of normal people engaging in acts of kindness. I want to draw attention to kindness because I believe it is what changes the world.

Just Sheri, encouraged by the generosity of wealthy Americans
