After backpacking around the world, he interned at The Homeless Voice, an advocacy group in Davie, Florida and became director of the COSAC Homeless Shelter.

Aaron was named a CNN Hero in 2007 after leading a campaign to deworm children in Haiti.     Aaron’s Planting Peace is a global nonprofit organization founded for the purpose of spreading peace in a hurting world. Their projects focus on a range of humanitarian and environmental initiatives, including a multi-national deworming campaign; a network of orphanages and safe havens in developing countries; LGBTQ rights advocacy; the Equality House; and rainforest conservation efforts in the Amazon.   Planting Peace has successfully dewormed over 22 million starving children around the world. Planting Peace has been able to create and sustain a total of 6 orphanages. Four in Haiti and two in India. Planting Peace has rescued 5 elephants from slavery. Planting Peace founded the Equality House, a worldwide symbol and center for advocacy in the movement toward LGBTQ rights. The house sits right across the street from the Westboro Baptist Church. Planting Peace has purchased and protected 2008 acres of Amazon rainforest. Planting Peace has provided basic care such as medical aid, housing, and nutrition to roughly 80,000 refugees in Ukraine and in Bangladesh.

    600. Care Tuk shares the meaning her life has given her on her last remaining days here on earth. This maybe the most joyful, heartfelt and meaningful podcast we have done.

    Obstacles and adversity are common to Care Tuk as she turns challenges into opportunities and difficulties into adventures. That is and has been  the hallmark of Care’s powerful, fruitful and joyful life. Doing it with God's help is the cornerstone of her walk in faith.     Like any battle-hardened warrior, Care Tuk wears her scars like a badge of honor. She's found her life turned upside down, her bank account depleted,, infertility issues, adoption, and more. Through her multiple battles with cancer,  a near-death car crash at the hands of a drunk driver, a brain bleed that left her speechless and nearly immobile, she kept going. Even after  the  unexpected death of her daughter and unborn granddaughter, she kept going forward.     Ravaged by the painful side effects of DES (Diethylstilbestrol) – an experimental drug intended to save her life. A body held together by bolts, screws, titanium plates, and 25-pound mono-filament fishing line. You can't find a more dramatic, heart-wrenching, raw, honest, and inspiring story than that of Care.     In this 600th podcast of You Just have To Laugh, Care shares the meaning her life has given her. I am blessed, honored and thank God I turned right instead of left and literally ran into her on a street corner in Ketchican Alaska.

    599. Comedian Jeff Allen’s latest book, “Are We There Yet” shares inspirational and at times laugh-out-loud stories how God rescued him from alcoholism and despair through the book of Ecclesiastes.

    Comedian, Actor, & Author Jeff Allen prays every time he goes on stage,  “Lord, let Your light shine through. Let them see not the darkness in me, but the light in You.” On his new tour, Are We There Yet? His hilarious comedy drives home the humor in everyday family life, the ups and downs of marriage, the challenge of raising children and the joys of being a grandparent.  In His latest book, “Are We There Yet? Jeff shares in his signature style of stand-up comedy bits, the inspirational and at times laugh-out-loud story of how God rescued him from alcoholism and despair through the book of Ecclesiastes. Jeff fell into substance abuse at an early age, and his problems didn’t magically go away when he got married. In fact, with the arrival of two children, they intensified. The sense that his life was meaningless made his family life as dark and biting as his comedy. But in his darkest moment, an unlikely encounter with the gloomiest book of the Bible set him on the path to salvation. The opening line of Ecclesiastes— “Meaningless, meaningless, all in life is meaningless”—resonated with him. So he kept reading, and soon he discovered the Source of meaning. Eventually, Allen found himself with a revitalized marriage and a repurposed career. If you have struggled to find meaning in your life, this book is for you. “Are we there yet?” Order at Amazon.com jeffallencomedy.com
