527 Euro donation to Myanmar Kid’s Aid

2 January 2012

Today I transferred 527 Euro to Myanmar Kid’s Aid (Myanmar Kinderhilfe), a Frankfurt based German development association. For each so-called “fan” on my Facebook page – so not only the new one’s – I donated one Euro. Due date was 31 December. And eventually 527 Euro were in the pot! I am very, very happy with the result and the “spread-the-word”-drive of many of the supporters. Thanks to all of you. I will repeat this in late 2012.
