A friend donated $30,000 to Oxfam

This video is inspired by what I think is an amazing act of generosity.

To the person concerned, if you watch this, you know who you are. I think you are amazing for this incredible act of generosity and for your thinking and the rationale behind it.

Congratulations!!

Here are some links to organisations I mention.

I welcome your comments and ratings.

PS: I did not realise there was so much background noise, dogs barking, cars passing, washing machines spinning. Sorry.

Update: I have now signed up to sponsor a child via Save the Children Foundation

Hello, good on you and congratulations. I hope you enjoy your interaction with the girl.

Remember that the postal service in these areas can be very fragmented so do not to be too disappointed if it takes a while.

Once again, congratulations.

Wow! 30,000 dollars? That's very generous. It's good that you are inspired to sponsor a child. I think I will sponsor a child too, 1 or perhaps 2 depending on my future financial situation.
