Funds for Japan


Hey My Friends all over the world!

Hope that you all had a calm and much more safe weekend than our
beloved friends in Japan :(



Our hearts go out to those who have been all over our news this very
heartfelt and sad weekend!

Being from South Africa we have rarely seen such destructive forces of
nature disrupting our life’s, and can not for a second have an idea what
one must go through during something like that..

This morning I felt that I wanted to do this post to give my condolences to
the families and friends that have lost there loved ones, and of cause
there homes and jobs because of the  I also took a few brief
moments last night to think of what I can do to help..



With this thought in mind, I already saw a lot of post on facebook, twitter
and other various sites where to go and make a donation of just $10 or more
if you can!

Now my friends I really believe that a mere $10 is really nothing to give if you
put yourself in there shoes and think that it could be me needing shelter, food,
close, shoes and not even the small stuff we that have it all take for granted.

I really need you to think about this... list them on a piece of paper and you Will
realize how much they must have lost...



every little thing you do from the moment you got up to lets just say lunch...
most of those people don't have...even the work that is draining your energy
and you would give up in a second, even that they would rather be dealing with
than losing there homes and being sheltered in a big room with thousands of
other people in the same room having nothing but the clothes they have on there
bodies!


I have listed a few foundations that is helping those in Japan and will be helping
them in the future when we all have gone on with our life’s those people will still
be trying to put everything together! Just go and ask the people of Haiti and I am
sure you will get a lot of answers that they are still struggling to cope!

So what is $10 and about 15min of your time to donate to those people really??
NOTHING! Nothing at all! Please please please, if in any way possible, go and
donate your $10 to one of the funds listed below, Your help could make so much
of a difference! Your $10 could feed a mother and her child tonight!!
