We've discussed giving locally on here before...

I rarely even refer to it as charity. The word just doesn't sit well with me...

In 2007 I was doing a high profile job in a shipyard. Met a young fellow there who I unofficially adopted. He is only a few days different in age than my own son. I believe the Lord just puts us where we're needed sometimes. How doesn't matter.

In 2009, he married a good friend's daughter. As typical they had two children together. Life was good for him.

Then in 2018, while playing with his kids, he made a miscalculation and broke his neck. The result was serious damage and partially paralyzed.

He has made some progress with expensive therapy. I spoke with him tonight and he hopes for another round next summer.

I'll start the ball rolling tomorrow on donations. His father-in-law and I argue over which of us gets to claim him. Neither of us saw this coming. But, we both love him like a son.

This is what I believe in and 100% goes where it should.
