What would you do if Channel 11 gave you $1,000 in cash?

Every Friday now is "Feel Good Friday," as Help Me Howard is giving away $1,000 to one very lucky person.

But there's a catch!

Tune into the PIX News At Ten every Friday night to find out what it is.

And be sure to go to our blog every Thursday night to find out what part of the tri-state area Howard's going to be giving away cash next.

This July 24th, the "Feel Good Friday" location will be in the Washington Heights section of Upper Manhattan, near Broadway and 168th Street.

Up near Columbia Presbyterian Hospital is where Howard met Jacquie. Jacquie is an Administrative Assistant, at the liver transplant division of the Children's Hospital and was willing to help him give the money away.

Jacquie noticed a family walking nearby: Kenny, Opheena and Kenneth Junior. They were thrilled to receive the money and Jacquie was very happy to be able to make someone else's day.

Howard, you are doing a very good job in the community. I saw the recipient of the cash tonight and you really made her day. Her family was there to share in the enjoyment. Times are tough, and I was pleased to see that someone who appeared to be in need was able to benefit from your generosity. Keep up the good work.
