Charity Burbage

My simple video contribution to the Project for Awesome in which I share my condensed history with child abuse and speak of a charity that assists abused children and teaches prevention.
I'm STILL learning more about this topic, and I'm someone that lived through it. Please tab the links to do some research after this weekend.

Statistics:

(Note that 5 children die every day due to abuse, which may be from stress/job loss because of the recession.)

@MigdalaVered Haha, well thank you.

[albusseveruspotter]

Such a brilliantly brave video. Thank you so much for sharing your story in such a public way, I think it's actually incredible of you to be reaching back out to kids now that you're an adult. Yeah, I'm not very eloquent right now but basically I think this is a beautiful video and thank you for making it.

@MigdalaVered I forgot to say you're welcome!! >< So here's a second reply for you too! xD

@MigdalaVered you did already reply, but no matter it's nice to receive thanks again xD I will definitely spread the word to my fellow counselors as well. (Of course! *sigh* I sure wish it did...)

Not only a great video ( I'm keep watching it even after p4a), but a great title as well.

well done and u're so cute <3

@fireworks368 I did that a bit. But I watched a lot before p4a started and some more today and last night when it ended. I hope most people do the same. Not just with my video. Any video for p4a.

Also, thank you so much. That is so very kind of you.

My accent is... weird. Um... It's a mix between Aussie, English, Scottish and American. Varies a lot.

@MigdalaVered Yes I watched it and I loved everything about it. I was just thinking because people were getting so caught up in the commenting craze that that they perhaps weren't watching the videos, which is sad because I can see how much you feel for this charity. I will donate and I wanted to let you know that this was my favourite P4A. Just a sidenote, you are absolutely gorgeous. What accent do you have?

[RobotEyesLie]

You are amazing
