Hello KM Members:
It has been on my mind for some time now to share information with you on an organization called, SOS Children Villages. I currently donate money to this organization and the purpose of my introducing you to it is NOT TO DONATE MONEY. The main reason I want to share this with you is to have you take a look at the work they do in various countries to protect children from abuse and if NOTHING ELSE SIGN THE ONLINE PETITION and also refer your friends to do the same. I urge you to please do this for the vulnerable children around the world.
I truly hope that you find it in your heart to visit their site and just enter basic information as a form of online signature. You help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Below is an excerpt taken from their website. I hope I am not out of line by including the link to their website--(Patrick please allow me to do this Thank you!)

SOS Children's Villages - USA mission is to build families for children in need, help them shape their own futures, and share in the development of their communities.

| By the way, I'm a member of the New York Haitian Student Association and we've been looking for a specific charity or cause to focus on. I'm going to bring this into our next meeting... |

That is fabulous! Please urge your friends to sign the petition also! It takes literally 2 minutes once you're on the site. :lol:
Thanks AP
