Paul Mulcahy's Grateful4 Foundation Aims To Spread Gratitude, Inspire Selfless Acts

NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J. (CBSNewYork) - The Rutgers Scarlet Knights are making a push to make their second straight NCAA tournament.

This past week they got a huge lift from junior Paul Mulcahy, who was named the Division 1 All-Met player of the week.

But the Gil St. Bernard High School alum is more than just a great basketball player, as evidenced by his Grateful4 Foundation, which began at the start of the pandemic. It aims to spread the idea of gratitude, and inspire a chain of selfless acts.

"It's a pretty simple concept. We think that it can relate to all people from all walks of life, like I said, and just changing that perspective of gratitude, it just really, like, makes you be in the moment and appreciate all the things in your life," Mulcahy said. "It's something I truly believe, is that people are way more alike then they are different. And I think that's where gratitude can kind of come into the mix, and bring people together."
