As gas prices hit record highs across the United States, Americans are feeling the sting. Willie Wilson is trying to ease the financial burden for as many people as he can reach.
The 73-year-old Chicago-based businessman is giving away gas to local motorists. Initially, he pledged to donate $200,000 – offering drivers $50 gas cards at several stations on March 17 – but given the overwhelming demand, he is contributing an additional $1,000,000 to the effort.
