<p>It can be easy to take life's little blessings for granted, especially if you live and work in your own bubble within a thriving metropolis. &nbsp;Having drinking water, food and clothing at hand is almost like having air to breathe - we couldn't imagine life without those things.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Yet millions around the world suffer from the lack of such basic necessities, living in poverty and desperation. &nbsp;Among those millions are children who are denied the minimum healthcare, education and protection just to help them build simple, normal lives.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>This fundraising effort may be but a drop in the ocean compared to what is needed to change this world, but Mother Teresa put it most aptly when she said - "we cannot do great things on this Earth, only small things with great love".</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Your donations to my humble contribution would be greatly appreciated! &nbsp;Every little bit counts as you can see below:</p> <p><strong>&pound;5</strong>&nbsp;can heat a classroom in Afghanistan for a month</p> <p><strong>&pound;10</strong>&nbsp;can cover one month supplementary feeding expenses for a malnourished child</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><strong>&pound;53</strong>&nbsp;can equip a school with basic equipment like pens, paper, and books for a year</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><strong>&pound;100</strong>&nbsp;can cover the training costs of five community health promoters in Ethiopia</p> <p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p> <p>Please also remember to use Gift Aid if you are a UK taxpayer so your money goes further - and thank you for your generosity!</p>
