Devoir de Contrôle 1 Anglais 3ème Sciences exp

 

 

 

 

Bradley Reback – successful entrepreneur, philanthropist and secret millionaire

– has a unique and inspiring experience of giving.

Bradley spent the first part of his career working as a fundraiser for a national charity. He then took some time away from the sector to follow his entrepreneurial spirit and – in his words: “make some real money”. When he sold his successful care home business just 10 years later, he used the proceeds to return to his philanthropic roots.

His first move was a little uncommon : “I knew it was time to reconnect in a qualitative way with the voluntary sector” Bradley tells us “and I was privileged enough to do this through my own experience as a Secret Millionaire, for the Channel 4 show.”

Secret Millionaire immersed Bradley in the world of homelessness and poverty and let him be able to interact with charities on the ground and see first hand the impact his support had on their beneficiaries. Living undercover as a homeless person not only brought Bradley face to face with the horror that the vagrant live through each day, but also brought home the positive implications that he and others can have on their situation. This experience will stay with him forever, says Bradley: “Philanthropy can be life changing for the recipient, and also the donor.”
