Friends--Responding to Stirrings of the Heart

Warrick Dunn's mother, a Baton Rouge police officer and single mom, was shot and killed when he was eighteen, so Warrick took it upon himself to raise his siblings. All of them were younger; the last left the house years later, when Warrick was playing for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Because of his experience, Warrick had a passion to ease the burden of single mothers.
He came to Tampa Bay as one of our first-round draft picks in 1997, and since then he has helped single mothers purchase homes by providing the down payments for scores of houses in four cities. Using the gifts God has given him, he has helped many people who were struggling to get by, giving them a hand and providing opportunities they wouldn't have otherwise had. He has looked beyond himself to make a huge difference.

You probably have a passion for certain people in need too. When you see a need that stirs your heart, act on it. It doesn't have to be a momentous action; it can be a small gesture that helps someone out. God has wired you to serve this way. Any step you take to meet someone's need is a step in the right direction.
