When Valdis Adonkis got elected, my father and I were the largest contributors of that.
And you know, by the way, just so that you all know, it was like $200,000.
Once that happened and Lithuania really started to prosper, my mom said to me, Jimmy, why don't we go and do
and help do a hospital in Lithuania, and let's modernize it, and we can see about getting donations in America.
And my mom said, I need $300,000 to put in some German windows.
I mean, there's literally, these windows had no seals between the openings and the windows.
They needed good windows in the hospital.
And so my first real big philanthropic issue was putting these, I did these windows in the hospital for my mother.
And my mother, she arranged all the donations of equipment and all containers and containers of stuff
Then we basically transformed this entire hospital in Lithuania.
And then we brought the doctors from Lithuania to Chicago and trained them in Chicago and then brought them back to Lithuania.
Then the doctor group from Chicago went to Lithuania and they helped them all and made this whole thing just become this beautiful, self-sustaining thing.
And that was, you know, and I did that with my mother and it was such a wonderful thing to do and it was such a feel good.
And we just did it because it was my mother's homeland.
And so-
So that was my experience with philanthropy back in the early 90s and before I met Leslie.
I met Leslie in 1998.
And then we move it fast forward into the journey of Jimmy John's and things that I did.
And this is unscripted.
This is all on memory.
