This story is too heartwarming to pass up. Scott Wellenbach grew up in Philadelphia and now lives in Nova Scotia. He’s a great poker player, and recently won $670,000 when he finished third in the 2019 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure Main Event.
Rather than using that money on a vacation, a car or some other fun activity – he’s giving it all to charity. He’s donated the money to causes like the Red Cross, Doctors Without Borders, Amnesty International and Oxfam International.
It’s worth reading about his adventures and the generous impact he’s making on others.
