What is Barry's Passion?
The following is quoted from an article titled Barry Greenstein: A Modern-Day Robin Hood written by Allyn Jaffrey for Card Player magazine.
"Barry's passion is children - protecting them, helping them, and affording children all over the world the basic needs they would not otherwise have. The impetus for this passion began years ago, when he feared that he might not have instilled in his own beloved children the compassion for others that his parents bestowed upon him. In an effort to pass this legacy on to his own children, Barry began researching charities until he discovered Children, Inc.
Children, Inc. is a child sponsorship program, affiliated with schools, orphanages, and welfare centers in the United States and all over the world. Children, Inc. prides itself on providing food, clothing, and educational needs to children who live in unfathomable poverty."
