It always gave me a sense of fulfillment to give back to those less fortunate.

One of my fondest childhood memories was living in Panama, across from the Panama Canal. My brother and I would climb over or crawl under the military fence with our fishing poles and head down to the viaduct to fish. We would catch as many fish as possible and give them to the local Panamanian kids who followed us each day. They had almost nothing, so we shared our catch with them to take home to their handmade huts, where their mothers would cook fish and rice. It always gave me a sense of fulfillment to give back to those less fortunate.
