At times we tend to get the feeling of that large organisations are less humane than smaller ones…..
Im glad to have got this feeling erased today.
My friend Paul Waweru in Kenya wrote this letter to UNICEF…. and their response follows….
> “Message:
> Mine is just to thank you for all the efforts you have ever
> done and you are continually doing to the young kids of the
> world.I sometimes feel challenged to what I can do alone but
> I have today come to realize that whatever small positive
> change you can create to anyone in need, you will change his
> /her world.I belive in this and as I visit several websites
> on human rescue I feel positive towards it.Having been a
> victim of the situation too I have all it takes to do the
> others and it has been my motivation to change the life of
> others too.I can frankly say that I get lot of Ideas from
> your web and other affiliates with the same mission and and
> vision which I feel they have taken me a step further.I have
> great ambition on changing the livelihood of young children
> and I belive whatever contribute I can make towards this
> will remain a great thing to the rest of the world.
> As to you as an inetrnational organization,keep up the
> spirit of campaining for less privilidged children so that
> the world change its face for them and they feel this is
> where they belong.We should remind the rest of the world
> folk that this world is not new and unless we preserve it
> the positive way,then it will turn its wrath on us
> and………

> “Dear Mr. Waweru,
> Thank you for taking the time to write such truly beautiful
> words. I have taken the liberty of sharing your e-mail with

> have each remarked as to how lovely it was. Your e-mail
> beautifully encapsulates the very point of what we at UNICEF
> are trying to do and is the very essence of Ghandi’s
> immortal words, “be the change you wish to see in the
> world.”

> It is great to know that we have an ally out there who
> shares our mission on behalf of the world’s children.
