I know, I know, I can all hear you moaning about the long night of heat and lack of rain. I have had about an hour's sleep all night but contemplated a lot for the future of our wonderful charity.
To date we haven't really needed publicity because our charity sells itself with all the good work we do so I see no need to seek more.
We haven't really had any money donated apart from $200 to buy nappies when we need them and $5 to Paypal to put towards a box or embellishments. It also means that all the many donations of goods that help us to fulfill our needs for the babies etc are donated with pure love and compassion and our charity isn't money based. We never hound people for money because our wonderful supporters donate so much and our committee uses a lot of our own money without counting the costs.
We have been operating just over a year so that is magnificent for a new charity that is on equal par respect wise to some of the longer running organizations (15-25+ years).
We have even had several people try to destroy this charity and will continue to do so but it is so truly blessed and protected that I guarantee you we have a mightier force looking after it to protect it. I pity the people who try to damage it!
Not only that but we have been helping many to heal in different ways by allowing them to help us. It doesn't always have to be the loss of a baby, it can be anything.
So when I look to the wonderful future of The Australian Outback Baby Project......my own baby that I created with inspiration from The Holy Family itself......an immaculate concept itself......I see nothing but a highly successful charity based solely on love, commitment, compassion, an Australian wide community and dedication from many hundreds of incredible people...YOU!
