Hi guys! So I'm sure by now you have heard the horrible news of the Hollywood actor, Paul Walker, passing away this weekend. I was very shocked! At 40 years old he left behind a daughter (Meadow Rain Walker) and an acting legacy.
Not only is he absolutely ridiculously good looking,-I mean if you have the ability of sight you would probably agree- but he seemed to be a pretty decent guy. He described himself as "Outdoorsman, ocean addict, adrenaline junkie... and I do some acting on the side."(Twitter)
He started the charity/organization ROWW or Reach Out World Wide and was actually at an event for the organization on the day he died.
"Reach Out WorldWide (ROWW) - consisting of skilled volunteers - is a non-profit registered 501(c)3 organization. While part of a relief team responding to the massive earthquakes that devastated Haiti on January 12, 2010; Actor/Producer Paul Walker saw a gap between the availability of skilled resources and the requirement for such personnel in post-disaster situations. Following the trip he contacted a group of his friends to assist him in forming ROWW with the purpose of filling this unmet need."
" ROWW is a network of committed professionals with first responder skill-set (including project management, logistics, heavy equipment operation, EMT, paramedic, firefighting, and healthcare, etc). The volunteers provide their expertise when disasters strike and augment local resources with the goal of accelerating relief efforts on a worldwide basis. ROWW has developed Standard Operating Procedures that facilitate arriving quickly, clearing access, providing basic necessities and medical assistance to ease the survivors' pain and bringing hope in the bleakest of circumstances."
"ROWW operates on the philosophy that by making a difference in just one person's life, the world has been changed for the better.
