We are looking for 300 000 people who would donate just one dollar.
We haven't been able to save even a deposit to buy a house.
We need help!!!
To me, it seems impossible that we would ever be able to own our own home so I don't even hope for it, just grateful we are able to pay rent.
Yet,as we do believe in miracles, and that we reap what we sow, I'm taking this bold step and putting our hands up for assistance. (This is realllly hard and very humbling to do.)
Owning our own home would change our lives, and others, in so
many ways!!
It would mean more availability to share hospitality with many more people, like University students away from home and needing a 'family fix', or overseas students, basically anyone who wants to come visit or needs a place to stay. It would mean less time and energy spent working hard for money for rent and bills, and more time for people who want a helping hand.
If you are wondering if we are a worthy cause, perhaps we are
not just a 'cause' but an investment in something good. We love to
share our home with people, whether for a coffee and chat, a meal,
overnight or for a longer period of time.
We can tell you many examples where we have 'loved on' people. Just ask. (don't like 'showing off' as it were so don't want to tell the stories here unless we really need to.)
If you are wondering whether we are spendthrifts, I assure you we live on the cheap - like only buying food etc when things are on sale. All of our furniture is from side-walk give-a-ways, charity shops or from friends n family. We don't smoke nor gamble nor buy take-away every week. (Ask our friends.) We pay our bills.
Yet...our bank account stays basically empty. We need HELP.
We are extremely rich in friends and love meeting new people. It would just so much more...incredibly amazing and freeing...to have our own home :-)
