As I reflect on this global village I am amazed!
I love that we have our special gifts to bring to this little organisation which is Sew for A Girl Canberra
I am thrilled to see the sewers sew dresses, shorts, bags and Days for Girls Kits – that each stitch is done with care and the utmost of love pouring into the garments
I am beyond grateful for your donations of funds, undies, soaps, fabrics and facewashers to do what we know is small but great work
I acknowledge every step, phone call, chat and encouragement which actions people to help others – our tribe thinking globally
I rejoice in those smiles, those faces and the unfettered joy in receiving something special that the kids have received that is only for them
And I delight in seeing those that care in countries far away, help coordinate our work and help us do the impossible
I enjoy every experience, every photo and each sweet card written with the utmost of love
I am beyond humbled at the trust in the eyes of children who have seen too much of the sad, the poor, the deprived and sometimes the depraved
And I am in awe of the helpers, the carers, the peace makers, the guardians of these little ones
And I know that with each step, each dress, each smile there is hope for a much better tomorrow for these kids and the wider community
I treasure our CWA’s, War Widows and countless others who will join us on this venture, because they care and they see that it is so practical and important to touch these little lives
So thank you …. without you we would not be able to do what we do
You are our tribe, you have my heart
And I am beyond grateful for you all
Love
