Extreme[ly] Good Cause:
The Freedom Challenge is truly an uplifting experience for the participants and now they themselves are extending this to various needy causes. Freedom Challenger Allen Sharpe has been tracking down and now shares some of the good work that is being done on the back of this amazing race (no not the Amazing race which is for wussies).
