Inspiring Teens Reach NYC
Sometimes it just pays to get up off your feet, take a stand and make a move to action. Especially when the stand isn’t for yourself but others.
After 44 days, four high school students have arrived at Ground Zero. Their inspiring walk started at their home in Rossford, Ohio, 650 miles away from their New York destination. Tad Millinger, Chad Coulter, Dustin Dean and Brandon Reinhard took inspiration from the heroes of 9/11, deciding to walk to the site of the World Trade Centers to raise funds for the new memorial.
Not only have the young men received accolades for their selfless venture, but they also raised more than $20,000 with more pledged to their cause. Their donations came from your average Americans, not corporate sponsors.
If four students can brave rain, heat, blisters, pneumonia, tendonitis, and impending make-up homework, so can we. So get up and use your spare time to do something for your fellow man. Even a small step can reap a large impact on your world.
