I just received a heart-warming and unexpected Stranger’s Day gift courtesy of Stephanie Watson all the way from the UK (I’m in New York!).

Stephanie made a donation in my name to provide mosquito nets to Uganda, which protect its children from Malaria - a disease that according to Oxfam “kills more children in Africa than any other disease.”

Charity is a great passion of mine, and Stephanie’s gift was more valuable and meaningful than anything else I could have received from someone I’ve never met.

Thank you Stephanie! Your compassionate Stranger’s Day gift inspired me to also do good on this day. For this reason, I submitted a donation gift in your name to a charity I so passionately support: the World Food Programme, to help fight world hunger and provide meals for the underprivileged.

Happy Stranger’s Day Everyone!
