So if this blog blows, it aint' my fault... i'm new to this shite. i'm going to try and 'maintain' this whilst we are in Swaziland.
No promises.
As of 5 days ago, i was just looking for a few pairs of used shoes - and now, somehow, this whole thing has exploded
We leave in 15 days ... the clock is ticking ( Insert large Jack-Bauer-24-ticking- clock here!) and i don't feel nearly ready enough
For those who aren't aware, the donations for the orphanage have surpassed $1000...
... we arecurrently at $1,016.21 (Amr).
CLICK HERE TO DONATE
Some have given $5, some have given $250. What blows me away is just how many of the donations are from people i have never met - who read about our trip on my friend Karen's website, and hit the donate button. Click Here for Troll-Baby
If this rubbish is ever read by anyone besides me and my cat, thank you to all those who have donated.
For those who would like to donate $5 ( less than a grande Latte at Starbucks ) to an orphanage in AIDS-ravaged Swaziland:
I have heard that some people think this is a scam - kinda like that Nigerian billionaire who want to get money out of his country by emailing random people. Well, i can personally guarantee that this is no Nigerian scam, cause' you won't ever get one cent back. I will take all your money out of the country, in an envelope, straight to Swaziland ( where you'll never have a chance to be refunded ) and it will be all be spent on something that will benefit kids in an AIDS-ravaged country. We might buy pre-school supplies. We might buy sandals and shoes. We might fix their water filtration system... i have no idea.
But without your help - we wouldn't be buying anything.
Once i figure out pictures, i'll try and get something upload to this website
Regular updates with new total will follow
many thanks
