[单项选择]Frank Buonanotte was going through some junk mail when he
came across a postcard advertising a History Channel documentary. "That pile of
mail had been sitting there for weeks," he says. "But I noticed the movie was
scheduled to air within the hour." For some reason, Buonanotte, a semiretired
entrepreneur, tuned in.
Into the Fire was about firefighters,
and Buonanotte was fascinated. "One segment was about what it’s like to be in a
fire," he recalls. "The smoke makes it impossible to see, you’re crawling along
the floor, people are trapped in remote rooms." The film explained how a new
technology called thermal imaging could "see" through smoke and walls so fire-
fighters could identify victims, fallen colleagues, and the source of a
fire.
But the portable cameras cost more than $10,000 each, and
few fire stations could afford them. About 80,000 firefighters are injured every
year in the line of duty; last year, 114 died. "But it’s not like cancer," says
Buonanotte. "A cure exists. The only reason it’s not used is lack of funds. That
bothered me."
The documentary stuck with him. Having recently
quit his day-to-day duties as founder and CEO of two companies, Buonanotte had
been meeting with a life coach to figure out "what the second half of my life
would be about."
At first, Buonanotte thought he would simply
donate a few thermal imagers. He contacted the National Fallen Firefighters
Foundation, and one conversation led to another. Buonanotte decided to set up
and run a charity, 500 for Life (he asks for at least $500, but he’ll accept any
amount).
Since its founding in 2007, the nonprofit has donated
40 cameras to fire departments in 25 states. "It’s never been easy for me to ask
people for money," says Buonanotte. "But if firefighters have the courage to go
into a burning house, then I need to have the courage to ask for money to get
the equipment they need."
The Buonanotte family absorbs the
administrative costs so that all contributions can go directly to buying new
cameras. In addition, the family itself donates several cameras a year, and
Buonanotte travels the country to speak, solicit money, and deliver cameras—"the
most rewarding part of the job."
Buonanotte could not have
predicted the impact that the documentary would have on him—and others.
"Business success is good and fulfilling," he says, "but many people end up
thinking there must be more than just this. Usually, it’s giving back that makes
someone feel whole and satisfies that feeling that something is missing. I’ve
been able to help fire-fighters save more lives. It doesn’t get any better than
that."Frank Buonanotte learned about thermal imager from ______.
A. a lecture
B. a friend
C. a TV program
D. an advertisement
