Hey, guys, Derek Cole with the Derek Cole Podcast. Thank you so much for listening. And we are closing out Orange Out Ms. Hashtag orangeoutms for March. It is the first day of April currently when I record this. So the numbers, we ended up with 53 photos and we donate $10 per photo submitted to the National Ms. Society. So we are donating $530. A lot of money. And, you know, someone said the coronavirus obviously had an effect on what we're doing because we're taking photos with homeowners and, you know, you know, social distancing and all this stuff, and that's going to factor into it. But look, guys, I'm grateful if one person takes a few minutes out of their day to take a photo with Orange. I mean, to me, it's absolutely huge that anybody takes any amount of time to listen to what we're doing or watch what we're doing or consume anything we put out because there's so much noise in the world today. It's very easy not to. So I'm very grateful. I shot a text out to the team here yesterday about telling them that I appreciate their support, appreciate them doing this, and it's humbling. It's amazing. To me, it's amazing that people take time to do things like this and it shows. They really care about you, care about the cause and want you to get better and want to do some good. So I just wanted to jump on real quick, say thank you for that, thank you for Orange out Ms. We'll pick it up next March again and we'll keep pushing to make a difference.
