     John Brown, an office worker, lives in Washington. He inherited his father's $1,000,000 when he was 23.
He didn't feel happy at all. His college friends were looking for their first jobs, but he didn't have to. John
decided to keep living a simple life like everyone else. He didn't tell any of his friends and gave $100.000 of his
money to a charity that helped poor children live better lives. Today he is 36,and he still wears cheap shoes and
clothes and owns a small car only, but he is much happier. Up to now John has helped 15 children from poor
countries all over the world, $200 a month for each. The child does not receive the money in cash (現(xiàn)金).The
money pays for the child's school expenses, food, medicine care and clothes. John receives a re- port each year, but usually the children do not speak English. When John first heard about these children, he wanted to help the
m. "It was not anything special," he said. "Until I had the chance to go to these countries and meet the children
I was helping, I did not know anything about their type of life they had." Once John went to meet a little girl in
Africa. He said that the meeting was very exciting. "When I met her, I felt very, very happy," he said. "I saw
the money was used for a very good plan. It brought me closer to the children in a way that giving money alone
can-not." "I want to do everything I can I will go on helping these children in need," he added.
