Why- might one ask- is Michael given our beguiling award of awesome?  Well listen my friends and I will tell  you the tale of Mr. Harriott and it will uplift you, it will make you smile, and IT WILL GIVE YOU HOPE!  Michael is a boy with a mission, a mission to bring others happiness and awake the sense of caring in the world around him. 

He is raising money for The Better Days Foundation, a non-profit organization created to help 9/11 victims’ families through a variety of healing programs.  Michael has been volunteering with The Better Days Foundation for over 4 years and is actively fundraising to keep the program doing what is does best. . . make people happy!  Michael has started The 5 Campaign, a fundraising campaign that asks for 5 dollars from each person, merely asking them to tell friends about the campaign in lieu of asking for large donations.

If you go to Michael’s page you can read a letter from the camp’s director, Amy Callahan, who helped create the organization in the summer of 2002 for 48 children who lost a parent or a loved one in 9/11.   From that first summer the program has blossomed and they are now making plans for the CBD 2007.

Michael, there are no words to describe how ridiculously fantastic and amazing you are!
