Radio Show Sparks Good Deed Movement
The Bobby Bones Show, a nationally-syndicated radio morning show, has sparked a movement that reminds people to be joyful in honor of a co-host's mother, who recently died of cancer.
After a video went viral in October showing a magician ripping up a homeless man's sign and turning it into money, a fund was set up that raised $40K for the veteran to get him off the street. When the humble vet only wanted a portion of the money, the magician surprised another struggling veteran with an avalanche of life-changing gifts, and made a beautiful video.
This is an amazing update to the October story about the magician who made headlines when he ripped up a homeless veteran's sign and turned it into money — big money.
After he met the veteran, who always holds a SMILE sign to inspire passersby, Rob Anderson set up a fund so his fans on YouTube could donate to the smiling homeless vet. He raised $40,000, but the ever-humble Alan McCracken only wanted a portion of it, so he could move from Las Vegas to California, where, according to Rob, his is now living happily.
The beautiful family of Gulf War veteran Johnny Hicks was presented with rent for one year, money for food, furniture and new car, thanks to the humble Alan McCracken and generous strangers who donated to a veteran in need.
