Joshua's Joys

Leaning on his cousin Perry's boat at just 12 years old.  At this age, Joshua had started helping others trying to raise money for St. Jude's.  He walked for miles from home to home, knocking on doors asking for donations.  There were two ways to donate, one was a simple lump sum of money, and the other was to donate a certain amount of money for each mile ridden on his bike.  Every person that had donated to Joshua for St. Judes, donated the amount to the miles ridden.  Because the amount was so little from each person, for each mile, Joshua decided to ride his bike 51 miles.  While others who had gotten large amounts of money and would ride 7-8 miles and then sat for the rest of the day, Joshua pedaled his one gear bicycle, again, 51 miles, raising thousands of dollars for St. Jude's.
