I am a pensioner who equips poor village soccer teams, supplies educational items and funds to a village kindergarten and takes clothing out to remote impoverished villages. I live on a pension but fundraise with sausage sizzles, raffles and second hand book sales, My local soccer clubs give me their old boots and uniforms. At least I know exactly where the money and goods go as I deliver them myself.

I am going back to Bali in September and so busy fundraising so we can build a kitchen at the Kindergarten to ensure every child has breakfast and furnish a special needs area. I also need to get many more soccer boots for my village teams and ensure they can pay their fees into the Balinese comp. It is full on at the moment organising a Boots for Bali concert but everyone has had such a tough year that finding sponsors is much more difficult this year. Bless you all for your supporting words.
