Day 57: Millenium Child(ren)
More sculpture from around Dublin and today, I trekked over to Christchurch for this piece by John Behan, commissioned by Barnardos, a children-focused charity, with support of Tipperary Crystal. It was unveiled at the end of 2000, in line with its aim to celebrate children in the new millenium.
I must say I have not worked with/on behalf of Barnardos before. Normally, I’m involved with fundraising for Unicef and I also sponsor a child through Action Aid. I know what I’ve been doing so far are the “easy” options, nonetheless I hope that some impact are made even if I’m not involved in a more hands-on approach or out on active advocacy efforts.
we are sponsoring one child in africa via world vision too…yeap definitely an ‘easy’ option…hmmmm…hope i can do more in the future somehow…will start by being less selfish eh
well, i believe every little steps count. keep it up!
