Jenny’s Heroes Make A Difference

Back in the day when I actually had time to watch TV, I used to watch the Jenny Jones show. I am a Jenny fan and I have been for quite some time. Jenny is also a fellow percussionist so that gives her instant cool points in my book anyway. b-)

Recently I was notified about a new venture called “Jenny’s Heroes.” I checked out the web site and found out that Jenny is giving away $1,000,000 this year to deserving individuals who want to better their community. There is an application process and Jenny is directly involved in the selection and follow-up processes. This is a great motivator, not because people are getting cold, hard cash to spend, but that they are being rewarded for their sacrifice and dedication to helping others in need. You can read each recipient’s story and follow the diary to see how they used the funds to make a difference. Major kudos to Jenny for such a brilliant program. :)

Side note: This is especially intriguing to me because one of my goals with Girls Can’t WHAT? is to build up enough revenue to also give away one million dollars. I’m quite a ways off from reaching that goal, but that won’t stop me from trying.  In fact, I am not waiting until I have amassed my fortune to do this. I regularly contribute to charities and good causes directly from my Girls Can’t WHAT? account and I frequently donate my designs and products to women’s organizations for fundraisers, etc. I track it in a spreadsheet and every once in a while I take a peek to see where I am with the total. Some day I will be able to say I gave away one million dollars – not because I want to pat myself on the back – but because I want to inspire others to do the same. I have everything I need already. Some people don’t. I can help. ;)

  • She’s not? Setting up a guy and ambushing him and the other guy in front of an applauding and cheering audience?

    She acted like it was a bad idea when she was in court and (predictably) started crying and blaming her producers.

    I hope giving this stuff away makes ‘lil Jen feel better.

    Jenny is not responsible for the choices of others. :)>-

  • Maybe Jenny should use some of that money to pay the family of the dude she set up one her ridiculous show that was killed because he appeared on it. You were a fan of that crappy show? Hmmm you really must be a broad. Sorry about Hillary.
