Article 5--Some thing of interest--Penny Harvest

So this guy, Teddy Gross, is the founder of Penny Harvest. He decided that he wanted to collect unwanted pennies and do some good with them, feed the homeless. He has collected over SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS in PENNIES only. He had an event in NY where he put a million dollars of pennies together. I saw all of this in a commercial. My very first thought was "WOW, how cool would it be to photograph THAT." So I looked him up.
