Here is a feel-good story for the day. Angie Slinger of Harrison, Wisconsin was given a challenge. She had a $1 bill in her hand and her son’s friend said to her, “This dollar is for you and if you use it the right way, you could feed the entire world.’
As a result, she created a fundraising page on Facebook for Feeding American Eastern Wisconsin. She hoped to have people match the dollar and to raise $200. Only a week later, 450 people had donated – and the fund was up to $8000. And the donations are still coming.
Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin is a not-for-profit food bank that helps those in need around the state. The fundraiser is continuing until September 30th.
