http://www.godsgoldenacre.org.uk/ - I read a book this weekend called "God's Golden Acre" which is a biography of a woman, Heather Reynolds, who started a program in the South African province of Kwa Zulu-Natal, in the valley of a 1000 hills. She helps children who have been orphaned primarily due to their parents dying of AIDs. Right now I have children of my own who need me, but when they are adults, if I am physically able, I want to go over and do as much as I can - I am very happy because for the first time, I feel like I know what I am meant to do in this lifetime. In the meantime, they ask people to donate if they can or at least to make people aware of them by posting the link to their site. I grew up very hungry, right here in America, and help came from many sources throughout my childhood. I distinctly remember one group of women from a church who came in and literally filled our cabinets with food. Although the name of this organization is "God's Golden Acre" you don't have to be a Christian to care about these poor children. There are so many of us with so much love to give....this is just one of the many places you can choose from to share yours :-) |
