Philanthropy on a Shoesting

Have you heard about Marc Gold? He has been traveling around the world, particularly in Asia handing out money to people who need it. His donations change lives, often for less than a dollar. For Marc a very large donation is $500!

That is quite different from most philanthropic organizations. Marc has seen a single US dollar literally save a life and so is very aware of the power of small amounts placed in the right hands.

An inspiring story just in time for the holidays!

He encourages others to follow in his footsteps. You can read stories of other Americans who have been inspired by Marc-- visit Parade.com/shoestring
