People starving and living in terrible, impoverished conditions, when we have everything always upset me. But since I had my first child, to think of a parent listening to their baby crying its heart out and being able to do nothing for it, not even a drink of water to wet its lips, let alone calpol for teething or even food to feed it. It breaks my heart, and I mean literally, when I see those adverts on t.v I cry for them.

But they don't need my pity, they need our help and this is my way of trying to do whatever I can to try and eradicate poverty. I know it's not much but if everybody were to do something -- whatever they can we might just get somewhere. Please make a donation.
