Anthony wins!
This is a follow up to this post. Anthony is a fourth grader, who comes from a poor family. His school just finished a fundraiser. He is not someone you would expect to sell much. After school he walked to the businesses in downtown Enterprise, and asked them to buy a discount card. Anthony did end up selling the most Wildcat cards. He sold 104 raising $1040 for his elementary school! He outsold the second place student by 40 cards. I got a chance to tell Anthony how proud I was of him.
Anthony is fulfilling his potential. Are you?

Way to go Anthony! That’s awesome.
Could it be that a certain children’s pastor named Justin Swasey helped instill confidence into him when Anthony was a child? By showing him God’s love and teaching him about Jesus, I know that touched his heart. He was such a shy little boy living in a bad situation.
Thanks for updating us about Anthony.
