For all the website!

This is why I love staying up late.To hear stories like this.

You need to check out Doris Buffett's site and what she has done. She is the sister of Warren Buffett. 

She doesn't give money away to everyone but those really in need. This kind of heart is more needed in the world.

Here tonight, I hear about the lady running for govenor of our state CA and how many millions or billions she is spending and I am thinking worse than what the heck this money could go to helping the poor!! I will write her as she is wasting her money in my opinion.

Then later on ABC news there was a story about Doris Buffett and her helping people!! My kind of person! It doesn' t have to be large like she is able to give but it can be anything to help those less fortunate and we can all do are share to accomplish that and learn from people who help others. 

The mission of the Sunshine Lady Foundation is to invest in organizations and programs dedicated to providing opportunities for the advancement of education, well being and new life choices for disadvantaged people with special empathy for the working poor and families in crisis.

Acknowledging that good luck does not shine equally on everyone, the Sunshine Lady Foundation directors, staff and volunteers, known as Sunbeams, seek out ways to effectively share financial support, goodwill, energy and vision with those who need it most, and to encourage collaborative efforts within the community to help achieve this mission.

The Sunshine Lady Foundation is a private family foundation founded in 1996 by Doris Buffett and funded through her generosity.

Since its inception in 1996 the Sunshine Lady Foundation has awarded more than $100 million in grants.

Enjoy the hope and inspiration she gives to others.

Oh, that is wonderful. I saw the same story that night as I was up late. I will have to check out Doris Buffett's life story. You learned the lesson well. A favorite saying of mine on a Hallmark Card long ago said, " For it is in the giving, that we receive."

Yes, it is always a great feeling to help someone else out who has it worse than you or the same as you. Thank you for sharing about where you saw her interview. Now I will have to search for it on the net..

I watched Ms. Buffet on Charlie Rose and was stunned that her life story was so much like my own except for the extreme wealth.  A lesson can and should be learned by her example; when things seem less than ideal in one's own life, use that life to help someone whose life is much worse.  It's a good feeling.
