\u00a0truck with food for the hungry in his community through the Holidays. He and I do not share direct communities; we don\u2019t live in the same area\u2026or country. Some would ask why I am promoting his cause on a social media site when I should be helping my own.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the thing\u2026Dave Reynolds (aka @997Dave on Twitter, works for 99.7 The River radio station in Campbell River\u2026in Canada) is infectious, and not in a bad way. He\u2019s one of those people that cares, and he cares more than you and I put together\u2026but then it starts to consume you, you want to help this man accomplish his goal because there is this genuine emotion there and you start believing in that same mission\u2026because of HIS emotion.<\/p>\n

For the third year in a row, Dave moves into this semi truck trailer and lives there night and day until the truck is full of food, some would call that crazy and others would call it dedication. It has been great to see Dave\u2019s Twitter community come together in support of him, even though they don\u2019t live in his community either. But what this does, for me anyways, is inspire me to not only donate to his cause (which I did, and I\u2019ve done a lot of tweeting for that cause as well)\u2026but to now start focusing in my community to see what I can do to be more helpful, to get involved.<\/p>\n

So those that wonder why I am helping his community\u2026the answer is simple\u2026I am helping him because that is how I can repay him for reminding me to help, to give, and to get involved. More importantly, I am helping his cause to thank him for that gift of inspiration and motivation! So, thanks Dave\u2026you are a great story of how people can change the world as well as a great story of how social media can be so amazing!<\/p>\n
