Hi fellow readers!
My apologies for not posting much new over the last year or so! I can’t believe it has been 11 months since my last post, but I guess time really does move that quickly. I can assure you I have been tremendously busy, and I will endeavour to update you when I get a few seconds.
In the mean time, I have some very exciting news to report. Experts Exchange, the knowledge sharing site on which I am a very active member, recently contributed to a fantastic community project: the building of water wells in two communities in Ethiopia.
As part of the ‘EE T-Shirt Charity Challenge‘, the Experts with too many shirts for their wardrobes asked EE to donate the cost of those shirts to charity. EE happily obliged, and we donated many hundreds of t-shirts to a very worthy cause. The EE staff at the offices in California decided they would help too, so ran their own charity luncheon to raise funds for the second well to be built.
In conjunction with WaterRun, the EE community is pleased to announce the wells have been completed and are now providing safe, clean, unpolluted drinking water to two communities in Ethiopia. A resource I take for granted has changed the lives of some of these people. A real measure of community is how it can contribute to issues in the outside world, and I believe this is one brilliant example of the Experts Exchange members pulling together to help a very good cause.
Thanks to all involved. This is remarkable.
The following link will take you to the EE Corporate Blog, where the project is explained in more detail.
