Thoughts over London Fog… my time to think while I drink my Earl Grey latte and be still.

Just one Christmas...

What if, just one Christmas, everyone decided to not spend the money that they do on things that no one really needs? For just one Christmas we all gave to a charity instead? What would happen? What COULD happen?

We see statistics of America alone spending $450 billion each year on Christmas. What if just one Christmas North Americans put that money into third world countries? It is estimated that it would cost only $80 million to provide clean drinking water to everyone on Earth. 30 000 children a DAY die of preventable diseases. This could be stopped. What could $450 billion do?

Who would be willing to give one Christmas away, to help SAVE millions of lives? Could our generation do this? Would they be willing? Would YOU be willing?

How can we make this happen?

Just think of what could really happen...
