| "Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in the broadside, in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, shouting "Wow! What a ride!" ", Hunter S Thompson |

| We have seen a lot of poverty, especially in the rural areas. We have also seen big signs for the charities which are helping these rural communities. One of them is Plan International. It is an excellent charity which has won awards for its work. Both of us sponsor kids through Plan. Your sponsor money does not go to the kid in question or its family but to the community as a whole to help out with improving sanitation, school supplies, medical supplies, potable water etc...It is really a worthwhile cause, so please think about sponsoring a child through Plan. |
