ok ,i might of been a lil harsh , but the USA is a very rich country and i belive that the work and money provided by world vision could be beter used ( no saying that ppl's needs in the US are any more/less imporntant) when i was 17 i was invited to a confrence for foster kids( after spending my childhood as a foster kid) , it aim was to get an advicot ass for foster kids here in AU i spent 5 years holding work shops, meeting with pollies, drafting new polices to do with the rights of kids in care, And it was all as a volunteer.
i am not dissing isaac for what he will be doing , but ppl in the "so-called first world" should be able to help them selfs a lil more, other ppl in other countrys dont nave the ability to do so ,well not as afective as us 1st worlders can, i just find it strange that world vision is doing ANY WORK IN THE US AT ALL. there is homles familys here too, but i have never seen a progect that was to help needy australian run by WV , all the work that do here is fundrasing for their 3rd world progects.
i dont want to sound like a yank basher , but some times thay need to look over the fence and see that there not the only ppl in the world ,
once again , i apoligise for any misunderstandings, and this was not a personal attack on isaac , infact i say good on him for doing somthing at all , maby there is hope for all of us yet.
sorry , i get angry sometimes and i go a lil spazza
i will not post in this thred again, unless for a good reason
