Michelle Engelsman There would be nothing to fear if you refused to be afraid. -Gandhi Updated: May 4, 2009: Hello again! My life has experienced some wonderful changes over the last few months, and it's been very exciting! First, I finished up my wonderful 7 month experience at Greenpeace Australia Pacific in late February so I could prepare to move to the UK. I arrived in Cambridge, UK, in early April, and have since started working with a wonderful charity called Red Balloon. Red Balloon is a charity run school for bullied kids. It's a safe learning environment to help them regain their self confidence, and continue their education. The main goal is to assist the children towards re-entering mainstream schooling or society as stronger and more confident individuals. It's a lovely working environment with kind hearted staff members and wonderful kids. I am continuing my work with BODHI, and we are still doing a fundraising drive to ensure the continuation of our campaigns. With tax time nearly upon us, if you would like to make a tax deductable donation, please visit www.bodhi.net.au! Recently I entered a competition to help get a new website designed for us (BODHI), but alas we were not the winners. If anyone has any ideas on who might be able to donate their time and expertise to help us build a fresh site, that would be fantastic! Until next time...
"If you limit your choices only to what seems reasonable, you disconnect yourself from what you truly want, and all that is left is compromise" "yes we can". -Obama Believe in your dreams. Make them a reality!
