Believe Project: $100 to help her boss whose husband has leukemia

Today's winner of a $100 bill through the Believe Project is Jaclyn Baird of Gilberts.

Here is an excerpt of her pitch:

"If I was fortunate enough to receive the $100, I would give it to my good friend and boss, Michelle Eilken. Her husband, Fred, was recently diagnosed with acute leukemia. They have two small children under 3 whom I love dearly. Due to his intensive treatments, both parents have to stay home during the duration of his chemotherapy for the next six months or more. I want to give the money to them because she is always the one taking care of everyone else; it is now her turn to be taken care of."

• The Believe Project will award $100 each day in December to a different person with a good idea for how to use $100 to do a good deed for someone else. Email us your pitch of 100 words or fewer (include your name, address and hometown) to specialevents@dailyherald.com.
