have seen the movie and was truly inspired by the whole idea that
the whole world could be affected by one persons actions.
In my town
we have a brownie and guide group who are selling their hall. I
don't know if you have the same thing in the U.S. but the brownies
are a group of girls upto the age of 11 and the guides from 11 upwards.
They do good deeds and odd jobs for people and sell cookies and
the like. They also have activities and games when they meet once
a week.
A short while
ago the boy scouts, who have a part share, in the hall decided they
wanted to cash in their share. The brownies and guides do not have
the money so they have to sell the hall. Even if they could raise
the cash they still wouldn't be able to afford the repair bills
and the general upkeep.
There is also
a mother and toddlers group who use the hall three mornings a week.
I have decided
to buy the hall so the group can continue. I do not have the money
either but i can raise it by selling my house to use as a deposit
and get a mortgage for the balance. Once the deeds have been signed
over to me i am then free to invite other charity organisations
to use the facilities available. I expect the sale of my house to
go through in the next 8 weeks.
What i would
like to do is build a PIF movement in the UK.
kindest regards
