AOK – Acts of Kindness, is a grassroots charity movement started by Nick Baldwin and Brian Nix.  It’s not just another 501c.  It is unique and the OC Register article does a great job of getting us some insight as to how Nick and Brian work.  I know these guys from the off-road world and I can vouch for their big hearts.  No matter how much you have to give, they include you in a big way.

A couple years ago, my friend’s father with Alzheimer’s made 100 wooden yo-yo’s that AOK helped pay for and distribute.  It was a small thing, but they made it big.  Thank you Nick and Brian for all you do!
