Hey there Jane. Great piece!! I think incentives for doing good are a nice way to help people in these troubled times we are in the midst of. I am actually the lead pastor of the church in Jacksonville (The Bridge Church) that is mentioned by Matt in the story. Thanks for bringing this idea to the worlds attention. There are a lot of great organziations out there just wanting to give people hope. I know we did the eletric bill thing for the sole purpose of showing people that no matter what they maybe faced with, there is hope! Again, great job on the story and keep bringing positive things to light. Please let us know if you want any more information on the outreach that we did for Easter.
