47-year-old American Shane Mcdeniel lives with his adult sons in the small town of Lake Stevens, in western Washington state. In this area, a lot of people still heat their homes with wood stoves. So Shane came up with the idea of chopping firewood and distributing it to those in need.
Next, the man ordered a huge signboard on which it was written that he and his sons were distributing firewood for heating for free. They received a huge number of requests. The McDaniel family filled the trunk of their pickup truck with firewood eighty times.
The approximate cost of the distributed wood is about ten thousand dollars. Shane and his heirs helped a single mother, elderly people, and just those who are not able to chop or buy firewood themselves.
Information that the McDaniels are giving away firewood for free appeared on the Internet. This prompted other people to join their initiative. It is also interesting that in addition to grateful letters, Shane even received several marriage proposals, not only from the United States, but also from abroad.
Shane claims that this is not a one-time action. He plans to continue distributing firewood next year.
