Compassion, intention and action

Jennifer tell us about her reasons for being part of the group...

I’ve had my share of disproportionate reactions. Viewed objectively an issue is relatively inconsequential, but I've taken it as greatly important. When I give blood, it’s easy – blood is something I have, something I can replace. Similarly, my hairless-ness is only a limited setback for me. When you look at the serious challenges that children with cancer face, it feels almost embarrassing to worry about vanity.

I met Jacky some time ago, she has really tapped into the power of intention, the great force of love, compassion, and selflessness that start the upward motion of a cycle of virtue. She's ensuring 100% of the target $250,000 funds go to the Foundation.

Thoughts and beliefs are the seeds from which actions and events grow. There needs to be action taken for change to actually be realised. I could have heard the plea for 'shavees' and just thought that it was a great idea, but it took a ‘yes, I’ll do it’ for me to reach out and make a difference.
