From duct-taped shoes to $11M: Man leaves surprise donations

In this Friday, Dec. 21, 2018, photo, from left, Rebecca Schaechter, Nicole Herron and Rachel Herron fold and sort donated clothes at Treehouse, a nonprofit organization in Seattle that serves the needs of children in the foster-care system. The charity was one of several that received donations from the $11 million secret estate of Alan Naiman -- a social worker who died from cancer earlier in 2018 after living a private life of frugality and concern for children facing hardship.
