Every Girl . Everywhere . Period
Recently I read "Love and Compassion
are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive."
Days for Girls Mackay volunteers are a real
example of this Love and Compassion for women in developing countries.
We had 18 volunteers today and $80 was
raised from the raffle which Cathy donated and was won by Shell, who shared it
with Janine.
We had a new Volunteer Helen join us last
week and it was great to see her again today.
Days for Girls has wonderful
networking.
During the past few weeks we have had
approximately 150 kits from Lismore that we have assisted with getting to
Townsville. Thank you to Alison and Andrew - also Terry, Debbie and Desley
Daley for assisting with this process.
As I mentioned in our last newsletter, we
have another 50 kits to go to the Solomon Islands... to the Helena Goldie
hospital in Munda - Thank you to Peter
Johnson.
We also have 50 kits going to Pokhara in
Nepal with Nursing and Midwifery students from Central Queensland University.
