Hello!
- and "Welcome!"
There are millions of poor children in this world - and there are tousands of NGOs trying to help some of them ...
What I am trying, is just "a drop in the ocean" - or at least some drops.
But for the individual child whose schooling has been paid, or whose crippled leg or burnt hand has been saved - or at least: improved a bit by some surgery - it's not a "drop": For him or her it might be half of her life ...
I started as a "Traveller" with very little money, to feed some kids some times. Later on I was employed as a tour guide for 15 years, and mostly touring Asia. In my free time (between the groups) I started at first to care for street children; later on shifting to children who stayed with their parents, but who could not afford the schooling or any medicines...
At first I spent very little money on this - I did not have much myself. But just by the attendance of a foreigner, the treatment in the nearly-free government hospital improves - gets better than what the "dirty street child" would have gotten, going there by himself...
