charity (14)
wedwardlinz, Upper Austria Austria680 Threads 7,252 Postswould u walk 1500km to raise money to help give someone [one person ] a better life.
yes, only for one person - my mother 
that's a very good and lofty question.I am surprised nobody's answered to it.
That's because there are easier (and better) ways to help someone.
I’d walk 1000 mile for charity but I’d swim 1000 miles for love. 
Nope - probably could do somethin much more useful during that time to help someone instead of walking - like being there for the one person who is in need of help.
That totally depend from your personal situation and yes, I would.
How much time do I have??
work out
No sorry, not for me.
Sadly I have never understood why we have to be at the giving end, and not on the receiving one.
How come that when it comes to giving, we are always considered the "rich" who have to help the poor?
How come we ordinary individuals, never got together and sent a petition for help to those real millionaires and billionaires like Bill Gates?
Why do people always come knocking at our door to ask for help? Who do they think we are...Father Christmas?
I will gladly help those who have helped me some time before, but have a great distrust in those who POSE for charitable institutions or for "that dying child in a bed in a hospital in Guatemala or somewhere" or for that most worthy cause of building a school in South Somewhere for the local orphans. Sorry but that is sincere me talking.
