A man in Texas is designing canes for veterans, and he's asking you to donate your Christmas tree to help him do it.

US Army veteran Jamie Willis started Canes for Veterans Central Texas in 2016 when he realized he wasn't the only veteran who needed a cane that was safe, sturdy "and not just ugly."

After serving in the Army for eight years, Willis was left a 100 percent disabled veteran completely unable to work.

"I do this so I don't sit home all day feeling sorry for myself," Willis told CNN. "This is all out of kindness. I do everything out of pocket and from donations."

As I've grown older, I've learned that pleasing everyone is impossible...but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake!
