Another
way to help our cause and help yourself too, would be to join HUB.
HUB
is a for-profit company that uses personal development training
and education as an economic engine to generate on-going
humanitarian impact.
Their
mission is to transition the world from a state of basic survival
to one of self-empowerment that creates sustained abundance.
A
large portion of the revenue generated from every product they sell
goes to support individuals and organizations that are addressing
the most critical issues facing humanity today, such as poverty,
starvation, lack of education, poor environmental conditions and
more.
They
UNITE humanitarians and their partners to create a "Total
Package" of food, water, education, and micro-loans to provide
the recipient the best chance at not only breaking the chains of
poverty, but creating abundance and the possibility to give
something back.
HUB
is a unique and truly amazing concept and is growing rapidly. I am
proud to be a part of it as a "FOUNDING ANGEL" and feel
it is a fitting and worthy vehicle through which we can all
benefit, including those who receive Wheelchairs. Please go to my
HUB website and take a look at this phenominal company.

One
of our supporters has had the brilliant idea of organizing a
Celebrity event and has the right connections. It’s early
days but the event will probably be in 18 months. What we need is
ANY Celebrity
so if you know any or can assist in any way,
do contact me. It's
exciting to see this developing and maybe you could do an event of
your own.
Today
while collecting in London I met a couple who offered a Wheelchair
they had bought for their elderly mother who has since died. The
chair is in pristine condition and will be shipped to a disabled
person in Africa or
India. If you know such a person or any responsible person such as
a Social Worker or Missionary who could find a suitable recipient
please let me know.
An
application for Charity Registration will soon be in the hands of
the Charity Commissioners in the
UK
as this is needed now as we begin to approach Businesses and
Foundations for funds. This should take several months and by the
summer it is anticipated that we shall be fully registered with an
official charity number. Julia and Sharona will be joining me as
Trustees.
