//moved from RWI+merged. yes, it's been posted before in this thread. my Gf is a sponsor. - AsenDURE

I did a search and I am surprised that no one has posted this yet. I am not part of this organization asking for help. I just came across it when my colleague informed me that he has sponsored a child. I am very touched by it so I wonder it Lowyat members would like to play a part to help make the world a better place for those who are more unfortunate than us, too.
