Comments on: Saying ‘Yes’ To Helping Others http://www.baconismyenemy.com/home/2009/06/saying-yes-to-helping-others/ Wed, 19 Jan 2011 15:24:57 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: Gabe O'Neill http://www.baconismyenemy.com/home/2009/06/saying-yes-to-helping-others/comment-page-1/#comment-5342 Gabe O'Neill Mon, 10 Aug 2009 19:08:07 +0000 http://www.baconismyenemy.com/home/?p=5313#comment-5342 Hi Giyen, I just love Twitter. (In a roundabout way I will come to a point.) Ever since my daughter and I started the Kids Are Heroes web site, I have been looking to feature kids that are working with Heifer International, only because I really believe in what they are doing. We now have over 70 kids featured doing some amazing things, but still no representatives of Heifer. I happened to tour a Heifer Global Village yesterday which resparked my interest in that organization. I tweeted about that experience this morning. Heifer Portland responded and since I was talking to the horse's mouth so to speak I asked them if they had any stories about kids. They sent me to you and this wonderful video. So I was hoping you could help me get in touch with them as I would love to feature them on our site. Thanks for visiting them! Hi Giyen,

If you have a moment, I think you'll really enjoy this video -- ahamoment.com/pg/moments/view/203 -- it's the "aha moment" when a musician discovered the joy in helping others, and it changed his life forever. The site was created by Mutual of Omaha to highlight good works, inspiring stories, and "aha moments" of all kinds. Perhaps you'll even be inspired to share your own story.

Good to see that you are using your popularity and power for good and not evil. ;o) Just when I think I couldn't be prouder of you guys! -- PS: Love the "Paigey-poo" reference at the end.
