There’ # # # In 1971, Airline Pilot Len Kaine received two electric razors for Christmas. Not needing both, Kaine told his passengers he would swap one of the razors for a product or service of greater value. He'd continue swapping until he got a prize valuable enough to raffle. He was hoping for a car or perhaps a horse. The winner would get the prize and the POW/MIA charities would get the cash. The $22.00 razor turned into a variety of prizes worth more than $15,000.00, which included a horse. Kaine said, "We went from a razor to a racehorse." And, over $22,000.00 in cash was donated to the POW/MIA charities. We formed the Golden Rule Society as a charitable, non-profit corporation. Since 1972, Kaine has periodically conducted his "Swap Shop in the Sky" (with variations) to benefit non-profit groups, churches and charities throughout the country. We’re offering our newest FREE programs to every church, charity and legitimate non-profit group," said Kaine. End
