Cherry Trees in Bloom

A cherry tree in bloom.
Running a non-profit NGO is hard.  It is a daily struggle to find the money to keep Meaningful Volunteer afloat.

Almost like clockwork, something comes up to keep us going and inspires us that there are other people out there to whom the words "human solidarity" really means something.

Such was the case early in 2011 when I received an unexpected email from the fine folks at the Cherry Tree House announcing that they had raised $US1,500 for Meaningful Volunteer.

A most welcome start to the new year!

So a tip-of-the-hat and many thanks to the Cherry Tree House.

A special shout out also goes out to my rock-and-roll friend.  You know who you are.
