I was listening to the radio and found out there is radiothon to raise money for the local Ronald McDonald House. The Ronald McDonald House is a great organization that offers housing for families of seriously ill children, a home away from home.

The short time I was in the car going to the gym, I was lucky enough to hear a caller call in with a great story. It was about a little girl who had a birthday party but instead of asking for presents, all guest were to make donations to the Ronald McDonald House.

This is true selfless act in my opinion. This little girl is forfeiting birthday presents to help a charitable organization, a genuine act of charity. My perception on parts of society are skewed towards the thought that kids are influenced to be materialistic from what I see around me and on TV, especially MTV with “My Super Sweet 16″. It makes me feel good to hear a story like this. I’m working hard to grow my business and support myself, so I can give more back to the community and to charities. I’m going to make a donation right after this post to the radiothon for the Ronald McDonald House ( I made a $15 donation). I just thought this was a awesome story and just wanted to share it with everybody.
