You would not believe the heat that comes off this many candles! Yikes!
I made a wish on these candles. You see, there is a group of kids and grandmas at the Thulwane carepoint in Swaziland, and they need water. A group raised the funds to drill a well at the carepoint, but there wasn't enough money to buy a pump. So they have a capped well. They have water in their community, but have no access to it. I honestly can't imagine how frustrating it must be to know that what you need is so close, but you can't get to it.
So I'm asking everyone I know to help fund this pump.
The odds are that I don't know you well, and/or owe you an email. And I'm asking for presents. Yes, yes I am. Love makes you do crazy things, and I love these folks at Thulwane.
You can give using the widget below. If you see me in person, I can make the donation for you if you're not comfortable with giving online.
