I have come to realize that websites are living and breathing things… (or could it be that I’ve just been spending way too much time in front of the computer writing HTML…!) As such, they change, they transform, they mature, over time. And they grow as the service or the business or the cause grows. [...]

I have a favor to ask of you… Go to Project One Prayer right now. We’re all in this together. We can all come out of it together. With a little bit of faith… a little bit of hope… and one big world wide prayer ! Blessings, Todd

I have a gift I’d like to share with you today – an article I wrote for Unity Magazine! It’s called “Creating Global Community Through Unconditional Giving”. I do hope you enjoy it, and blessings to you in joyous giving today!! Todd

A good friend of mine, Mr. 2020 (yep, that’s his legal name!), is a very wise soul and a gifted author. He recently published an e-book called “Jumping Mouse”. At first glance, it might seem like a children’s book… But after you get past the first couple of pages, you’ll discover the power and magic [...]

I’ve been giving away a dollar a day for just a little over a year now. And as I’ve told folks about it, many of them have thought it was such a good idea that they decided to do it, too. Lots of miracles have happened in my life since I began, some big and [...]

It was that time again today to get the car washed… Not sure why – I guess it’s a habit – but although I always tip waitresses and waiters, I rarely tip the workers at the car wash. But today was different… It was early in the morning, and I must have just been feeling [...]

A couple of days ago, everyone in the Greater Houston area was getting prepared for the arrival of Hurricane Ike. Although it was far from being one of the most powerful storms in its strength, it was certainly one of the largest in size to ever hit the Texas coast. We decided to “ride it [...]

When I began to give away a dollar a day back in the summer of 2007, I was in pretty rough shape financially. All (outer) indications said that I shouldn’t be doing this, because I didn’t have enough money to give away at the time. But I understood the deeper reasons why, and started doing [...]

Last night, I had a conversation with a friend who had just visited Israel on business. He was describing the ongoing tensions he had observed between the Jewish and the Palestinian peoples in the particular area he visited, and how the carrying of guns and weapons at any age is still commonplace. Afterward, I tried [...]

Today, August the 29th, is a pretty special day to me. Because it was exactly one year ago that I began to Give Away A Dollar A Day. I could tell you how much my life has changed since, and because of it. I could tell you that hundreds of folks around the globe are [...]

My new friend, Jenny, wrote to me – “I’m having great fun over here in Ireland. I’ve adapted your Give Away A Dollar A Day to ‘Give Away A Euro A Day‘. I have to say it’s great fun because it’s not as easy or as quiet as dropping one of your dollars, so you [...]

I work for a company whose headquarters are on Long Island. I was at there at a business conference, and, during a break, dropped my dollar by a copier in the customer service area on the 2nd floor. I overheard two guys talking about it – did not see them, though, and didn’t know who [...]
This one’s from my new friend, France, and it’s a great story about finding money! Something cute happened that you might like to include in your writings sometime: last week I was helping a friend moving stuff out of his barn. Upon enterering the barn, I found 1¢ at the entrance. Inside the barn, I [...]
One of the most fun places I’ve ever given away a dollar is at our local Marble Slab Creamery Ice Cream Store. In fact, I’ve even included it in one my weekly e-mails that I send out, Inspirations From Give Away A Dollar A Day. I received such joy the first time I did it [...]
You know those paper towel dispensers in the bathrooms on the airplanes? The ones where they so neatly tuck lots of paper towels in one tiny little dispenser? Well, I gently pulled back the fold of the towel in front and slipped my dollar in there, tucking it in, and hiding it as best as [...]
