A new life for a homeless man
Pimp This Bum tells the life changing events of Tim Edwards, a Houston man living on the streets. After being approached by a father/son marketing team about a unique charity idea, Tim agreed to participate. The agreement: fly a cardboard sign at a busy intersection with the words, "All Major Credit Cards Accepted www.PimpThisBum.com." What erupted from this internet experiment was a media campaign that traveled the globe in a few days. Donations came pouring in and within two weeks, $70,000 had been raised to help Tim get off the streets. Pimp This Bum tells the inspiring story of Edwards life in the wake of this unexpected turn of fortune and his courage to begin a new life.
