Anthony Talley started a $1 Thursdays program in his community where every week he finds a person in need and raises money for them.

His first fundraiser, he ended up collecting $120 for a friend who was going through hard times.

"Most people think that's not a lot. But when you're down bad, that could be everything," Talley said.

Next he raised $1,400 for a man battling lupus. Then $2,220 for a local barber battling COVID-19. And then $8,000 for a man whose family's home burned down.

So far, Talley's $1 Thursdays have raised more than $20,000 for people in need throughout his community.

You can follow his $1 journey on Facebook where you can also make a donation.
