We Did It.
Exactly 14 days ago, I wrote about Project Generator
where my goal was to raise USD$800/£511
for
Barb's Home of Angels in Uganda.
I had the crazy idea of raising the total before Christmas,
without really realising that Christmas was only 2 weeks away!
Some kind people blogged and tweeted about it, spreading the word....
donations came from all round the world....
many of them from people I don't know at all.
the kindness of strangers....
We have raised EIGHT HUNDRED DOLLARS....
the Home needs a generator to function on the 3-4 days a week when the electricity simply doesn't function.
They will now have that generator.
Fabulous. Fantastic. Brilliant. Excellent.
I'm so happy!!!
A huge massive enormous thank you to everyone who donated -
be proud for making a difference and for caring.
....we did it....








That is extraordinary. It is people like you who bring hope to this world.
