We donate a portion of our profits to local charities. We have never publicized this fact. We do it because we want to, not because we want the publicity. However, recently we stumbled upon someone who could really use some help and we want our readers to know about this young man. Through various contacts with this young man we have been overwhelmed with his intelligence and charisma. We don’t really want to go into detail about any of his medical conditions or his situation, all we can say is that we really encourage you to visit his site.
