A Little Bit of Awesome: 12/29/2020

93-year-old retired Air Force Colonel John Hobson likes to keep busy.
John has kept himself busy during the pandemic by handcrafting close to 100 walking sticks and selling them. He managed to sell out and earn around $600 in just a few days…, and all of the proceeds he donated to his local food pantry. But he didn’t want to stop there. So he and his family set up a GoFundMe page. So together with his walking sticks and the donations, they have managed to raise close to $16,000
John Hobson is pretty awesome.
