Hi Sonny,

It's great dat u r here to help too....but i wish to keep this thread related to World Vision, hope u dun mind

Sorry .... i though is the same topic but i dunno the organizer make different ....

of coz it's the same noble course but then again i'm afraid dat everyone will be using this thread for other charity thingy as well....u know what i mean??

sorry again ya

no need to be sorry ......

my mistake ...

My dearest sponsors,

This thread has been idle for a while. Guess it's time to make it happening again during this festive season.

I've jz sent a Xmas card to my child. Can share about urs??

I've got some increment and am sponsoring another child from China.

All the best and Merry Xmas!!!

Sorry, but how do you know they're not just keeping the money ? is there some kind of professional audit that you can look at ? there's no sense in making the fund organizers rich is there ?

People surely need to know how much the fund is actually donating, what the fund's expenses are, etc. How do you know how many percent they allocate for "running costs" ? it's called accountability.. you have public funds you should show the public how you spend it.

30 hr famine is part of the program under World Vision. It is a good thing to do.. u should join her as well..

Yaya, when will be the next camp?

Much has been said about child hunger... and to the man on the street, it's all pretty complicated.

Well, here's your chance to do your bit for hungry children, and it's really simple!

Join World Vision's Skip-A-Meal Campaign :

Skip breakfast, lunch or dinner and use the money to put a steaming bowl of rice or noodles in front of a hungry child in Sabah or North Korea.



It's so simple, anyone could do it!

My dear friends,

One Life Revolution reached over 10,000 lives !!

Due to the overwhelming response, One Life Revolution is embarking on our second leg to 5 more venues in the Klang Valley (2), Penang, Kuantan and Johor Bahru.

One Life Revolution (OLR) is a unique walk through experiential exhibit that's held in Malaysia for the 1st time. OLR lets people “walk in the shoes” of others who have suffered the plight of social injustice. The life-size exhibit gives people the opportunity to have a direct encounter of someone else’s life as they struggle to cope with HIV/AIDS and living in harsh conditions prone to child trafficking.

OLR is basically a public awareness and advocacy campaign. The exhibit aims to raise awareness, among Malaysians, of the plight of children affected by HIV/AIDS and child trafficking. It is hoped that having “walked in the shoes” of the children featured, visitors would develop a sense of compassion and be challenged to help those affected in various capacities.

There will be 3 (three) real life stories depicted (children from Cambodia, India, and Malaysia) in 3 different 'paths'. 1 path will take about 20 minutes.

Please drop by to support this meaningful event and help to forward this msg to your friends.

p/s: I'll be around during the weekends to help out. Really hope to see you there
