For Sale – Part 6

Our realtor friend Lori called and told me about a young woman, Katie, who is an abused 26-year-old mother of three. She lives with a boyfriend who fathered one of her kids. While Katie is at work her boyfriend smokes and drinks her paycheck so she has no money to buy food. When she is at home he abusively yells at her. He has some sort of condition which affects his moods and he is apparently under-medicated. We didn’t want to take on the burden of giving a fourth large loan but we can and someone needs help that we can give without extending ourselves too far.

For Sale – Part 3

The third home that I sold was not one that I purchased. It was the place I was raised from the third grade into adulthood. Indeed, I continued living with my parents after I had my job with General Motors, through college, and saving for my first home. Here we move toward my emerging philanthropy.
