It Was A Long Winter Robert Breaks Both Legs

by McGowanFamily on May 7, 2012

It Was A Long Winter Robert crashed skiing and broke both legs and could not put any weight on either of them for 12 weeks. He walking again and rebuilding the muscle that haven’t been used. I have to say this he never complained or felt sorry for himself just took it all in stride and stayed positive. He also has created  a blog called RobertJohn and is getting good at it.

We Will End World Hunger And This Is How!

by McGowanFamily on October 21, 2011

We Will End World Hunger And This Is How now with that said let us start there is so much to do and to little time to do it. Have you ever thought to yourself If I did that I could make a difference or had a dream to make a difference I know I have and I also know that I really never put those thoughts into action until recently. Myself with the encouragement of my four young kids purchase A XANGO Meal Pack that provides approximately 35 meals and will literally save lives. I know that is not much but we are looking for help from anyone that would like to help. The meals that my family supply is directly responsible for 420 meals a year I believe that is a start Now if just one of you reading this would help that number will double still 840 meals is a little better. To put it in-perspective though According to the UN, more than eighteen thousand children die daily from hunger. which become 6,570,000

6 Million Children Die Yearly

6 Million Children Die Yearly

in a year so if we are to put a dent in this I need approximately 15,643 individuals to be involved with us and by the way that number would have to be tripled in order to do 3 meals a day.
So it comes down to networking through friends or people you know that would like to see this problem erased here a YouTube video that really explains how simple the process is Pay It Forward. Stop did you watch it, OK here is the power.

This is what happens if 1 person helps three people and they do the same and goes for 31 days. 1  3  9  27  81  243  729  2,187  6,561  19,683  59,049 177,147  531,441  1,594,323  4,782,969  14,348,907  43,046,721 129,140,163   387,420,489   1,162,261,467   3,486,784,401  10,460,353,203   31,381,059,609     94,143,178,827     282,429,536,481  847,288,609,443   2,541,865,828,329    7,625,597,484,987  22,876,792,454,961     68,630,377,364,883

So maybe this has the possibility to work .My seven year old daughter

Michelle, Hey Dad I Believe I can!

Michelle, Hey Dad I Believe I can!

thinks it is, so who am I to argue the point. There are a couple of ways to start if you would like to be involved with just sending A monthly Meal pack then go here Send A meal Pack The second way is the “Pay-It-Forward” project provides the MECHANISM that allows you to generate a solid, Plan “B” income while having a significant impact on the World Hunger issue! If this is the way that is best for you go here “Doing Well By Doing Good”.

Like the old saying goes” Give a man a fish and he eats today teach that man to fish and he eats for a lifetime”.

This is the dream of the Network Goodness project. The thought process here is creating a paradigm shift

Paradigm Shift Is Just How You See Things Young Lady Or Old?

Paradigm Shift Is Just How You See Things Young Lady Or Old?

in charitable funding! The best way to try to explain this is, have you ever taken a plane anywhere before the flight can take off the flight attendant explains how to put on the oxygen mask and then says make sure you do your mask first so that you can help people after your safe.

All the people involved with Network Goodness, are committed to the goals of saving and enriching the lives of children. I believe this is possible the bottom line here is. My family has chosen this project because we want to do good in the world and what could be better than saving the life of a child. You can contact us at 530-876-6257 or 530-748-8453 or email us at goodnessnetwork@mcgowanfamilyblog.com Thanks to all that will be involved.

The last thing that needs to be said is We Will End World Hunger And This Is How!

As a father of four children

Robert,Kathleen,Thomas and Michelle

Robert,Kathleen,Thomas and Michelle

who accidentally stumble across a video on YouTube a couple of months ago that was so disturbing that two of them were crying. That video depicted starvation and the problem of world hunger. When the video was done my youngest daughter Michelle asked “daddy can we help them”? Now imagine a seven year old with tears in her eyes looking at me like I would have the answer for world hunger. A few minutes passed and I finally said yes Michelle we will help though at the time I had no clue on how or even where to start.
The first place we started was using Google search which turned up hundreds of results. Now came the hard part was figuring out how we could make a difference there are hundreds of charities to donate to the problem with those charities was that a single father of four young children the oldest just turned twelve was a hundred dollar donation would not help much in the overall scheme of things.
What we did find was a program called Network Goodness their motto is “doing well by doing good”. They are doing is developing a Global Network of normal people just like us, who are making it THEIR BUSINESS to develop a substantial impact on world hunger problem.

Their Goal, and mission statement, is to END World Hunger, by 2021!
I guess the best way to explain this is teaching and training anyone who wants to help how to help. Like the old saying goes” Give a man a fish and he eats today teach that man to fish and he eats for a lifetime”.
This is the underlying goal of the Network Goodness project.

The unfortunate truth of the problem of world hunger is my family doesn’t have a lot of spendable cash after we pay all the bills and I am pretty sure millions of people are in the same position.
What project goodness has been able to do is allow a family like mine to make a business out of becoming a part on the solution to world hunger

Feeding Starving Children

Feeding Starving Children

by creating a network of people who can make a living by feeding starving kids around the world. What I was starting to understand was we were not in a great place financially to help in a major way.
The thought process her is creating a paradigm shift in charitable funding! The best way to try and explain this is, have you ever taken a plane anywhere before the flight can take off the stewardess explains how to put on the oxygen mask and then says make sure you do your mask first so that you can help people after your safe.
This type of mindset is what drives Network Goodness, all of us have to be able to take care of ourselves before we are to help those in need which in turn will allow us to make a significant difference in world hunger by creating a perpetual fund generator how cool is that?
For Information on how you can help go here now fill in the form and you will be taken to site with all the information you need or call us at 530-876-6257 if no one answer please leave a message and we will get back to you as quick as possible.
