UK readers only (for the moment). Around 1 billion people around the world – and principally in Africa – are affected by Bilharzia, River Blindness, Whipworm, Hookworm, Roundworm, Elephantiasis and Trachoma. 50p would pay for effective treatment for a single person against all seven diseases for a whole year. This UK-based initiative at 50pence.org is aimed at providing that much-needed treatment. Watch the short video, then pay your money. You can afford it. And they need to get an on-line payments system working so that folk from round the world can contribute.
Thanks so much for posting this.
How can we fail to chip in 75 cents?
I’ll do it and then send notice of the appeal to the Vatican. I’m sure they’ll be anxious to help. With just one picture that they have tucked away in some obscure fcorner of the dongeon, they’ll be able to cure everyone in Africa for a lifetimne.

I’d love to contribute, but sending in a cheque? In the 21st century? Those guys need PayPal. Until then, I’m still with Doctors Without Borders. 🙂
Spread the word, everbody!!!!
WE CAN DO THIS!!!!
The world needs more kindness, gentleness & love………..such a small price to pay to give so much.
Side effect of contributing: Instant Warm Fuzzy!!!!
LOL,
