Keeping Focus
Hello there
As many of you know there have been terrible bushfires and floods throughout Australia over the last few weeks and all focus has been on those.
While there will be many weeks, months and years of work to get towns rebuilt – Australians are good at getting on with the work and getting the job done.
It is easy when one faces adversity to forgot our commitments that we made in times of peace and prosperity. Our world has changed a lot in the last few months, financially and environmentally.
Although I have not had much time to devote to this blog as a result, please know that I have not forgotten my commitment to the children of developing nationals and the OLPC Foundation.
I am still squirrelling away my caffe lattes every day although the current exchange rate is making the original cost a bit more expensive that first imagined!
Wouldn’t it be great to have a completely different rate fo exchange for not-for-profit purchasing?
A set rate of exchange because what you are purchasing is for the benefit of others?
I know!! – I hear the businessmen and women going -’ What are you mad?’
But I am just thinking of ways to aid our world family, our children of the world.
If you haven’t helped anyone in a while and are feeling the urge – check out www.laptop.org
Till next time,
The children are our future – you can help – one child at a time!
