Family Sells Home, Donates Half Of Sale To Charity

When the Salwen family decided to sell their house in Atlanta, Ga. last year, they did something a bit unorthodox: They moved into a smaller home and pledged to donate half to charity.

Then they decided, as a family, where the money should be donated to.

The family eventually chose to donate the money to The Hunger Project in western Ghana.

Kevin Salwen and his daughter Hannah have written a book, "The Power of Half: One Family's Decision To Stop Taking And Start Giving Back," that recounts their experience.

You can learn more about how the organization they invested in, The Hunger Project, is empowering men and women to end their own hunger at www.thp.org.
