A birthday message (and now I feel like the Queen :D)

[hils]

Last year, for my birthday, I asked my friends and family to donate to Random Acts in leiu of gifts. This year I want to focus on a specific project. You can read the full story from Random Acts' own mouth below. What I want to do here is just explain why this is so imporant to me.

I, like a lot of people, took my education for granted when I was at school and university. It was always something that was just there. I never stopped to consider that in some parts of the world people are actually struggling for the opportunity to learn and develop themselves.

These people in Nicaraguar are willing to make a two day journey every week to attend school for one day because they are so eager to learn and something as simple as a reliable bus will make all the difference to them.

I know for a fact I would not be the person I am today without my education. Learning is what paves the way for change so let's help build a better world for this generation and those to come.

I know it seems like people are being asked to give all the time but this is something physical that will make a real difference so please give what you can.
