Gambler Gives to Suffering Families

robinhoodhat.jpg

A mysterious do-gooder who goes by the alias of Robin Hood 702 gambles in Las Vegas (area code 702) to selflessly give away his winnings to people in need. In 2008, he gave the Kelger family $35,000 to help pay for their daughter Madison's treatment for her brain tumor. He also sent $20,000 to Sandra Brown who went into debt caring for her aging parents.

Right now, Robin Hood 702 is paying the Martinez family's yearly rent, as well as their two-year car lease, because the father is battling stage 4 colon cancer.

"I do this … not only to help people but to inspire people to never give up," said Robin Hood 702. "Just when you think every door has closed on you … God throws something in your way."
