Donations for an important cause

Currently, a team of enthusiastic, Earth loving people are taking on a massive effort by walking on foot from the outback town of Wiluna, through Kalgoorlie and eventually into Perth. This is an enormous feat to accomplish as the distance is an incredible 1130kms. The walkers will expect to take about 10 weeks to achieve this challenge. The organisation behind this walk is 'Footprints for Peace' a global community of friends with a common belief that all life is sacred sharing a common goal to protect Mother Earth.

Their current event that has found them strolling through the red dust of outback WA and through the main street of Kalgoorlie tomorrow is to bring awareness against Uranium Mining - to walk towards a nuclear free future. Their aim is to educate about the dangers, destruction and waste that threatens all life at every stage of the nuclear process. They also wish to promote positive, social and environmental solutions towards the development of renewable energy to create a sustainable future.

When I first became aware of their incredible walking effort to bring awareness to the public on this serious issue, I immediately wanted to help. So with the generosity of my husband who encouraged me to make a worthy donation, we ordered up a large amount of fresh organic fruit this week in anticipation to donate a large amount of fresh produce to the walkers. I also had some support from other members of our local organic coop to participate, handing in a portion of their weekly organic orders. Soon we gathered up 3 full boxes of organic produce.

As an extra bonus to keep the walkers energies high and to show my appreciation for their enormous effort, I made a large box of raw mixed power balls to distribute. My dear friend Renea spent the morning with me, sharing her raw ingredients and time to help me 'roll up a storm'. After a good mornings work of mixing and rolling, we had prepared quite a batch.

 We made a variety of yummy little super charged raw balls with a mix of ingredients including nuts, seeds, dried fruits, powders, flax, coconuts, dates honey and what ever else we could find in the pantry.

And here is the lovely and amazing KA - an organiser of "Footprints for Peace' accepting our donation with one of the walkers Kerryn. Both ladies were so grateful for our combined donations. And a bigger THANKYOU for your efforts to bring a safer, greener and healthier awareness to protect our Mother Earth.

Accepting the donation

It is such an amazing feeling to be able to give something so small and do something quite simple, yet make an entire team of people smile and feel supported. Giving is so much easier and fulfilling than taking. If only we all understood that.
