I know there is a lot of controversy surrounding reality shows, but our family has our favorites – Wipe Out (makes us laugh!), Shark Tank, Undercover Boss and Secret Millionaire. We usually have to watch them after the fact online due to not having TV, Cable or a Satellite Dish. Yep, one of those “weird” homeschooling families.
Anyhoo, did not realize that Secret Millionaire was ending for the season until I opened my inbox for TFB pitches! So sad. Secret Millionaire shows how individual millionaires go undercover usually as volunteers or as a volunteer starring in a documentary about volunteer work. The end result is the millionaire is touched and moved by ordinary people and ordinary people who are giving of themselves are blessed with a large sum of money donated by the millionaire themselves. Incredible stories. People helped and lives changed, nothing better than that.
Season Finale of Secret Millionaire
Last night on ABC, viewers were touched by the season finale of Secret Millionaire. Self-made millionaire Ali Brown travelled to Venice, California – only 2 miles from her home in Marina Del Rey, but a world away from the life she knew.
Venice, California is a city where the rich and poor live side by side. While Ali had often been to the area, she had never seen this side of it before. During her experience, Ali took up residence in Venice and visited three organizations geared toward helping people in the area.
Watch the season finale of Secret Millionaire here:
During her week as the Secret Millionaire, Ali visited Harvest Home, an organization that provides shelter to homeless and pregnant women. She also spent time at the Bread and Roses Café, which serves meals to over 150 people in Venice each day.
Finally, Ali helped out with The Beauty Bus Foundation, which offers beauty treatments such as manicures and pedicures to individuals suffering from degenerative diseases, and their caretakers.
Ali shared some candid thoughts about her experience and how it changed her life
