So why should somebody send money to Miltiades and not directly to this or any other similar institution?  Those who want to give money can easily do it by themselves without bragging about how big philanthropists they are because they gave 50 or 100 Euro!! |
It could be perhaps that Miltiades made the effort to help these people and not Sotos.
As a result of my " bragging " the home already has 500 euros and a further 500 or so pledged thus far.
So , the moral of the story is that I have helped to raise a little money for these misfortunate Cypriots .
I shall visit the Home on my next visit and I will put it to them and see if they feel as you do !!!
What you and others with the same mentality ought to realize is that if by " bragging " as you say I help to raise funds then be it. |

| Can I just say that we should do this every year. Whether to the Children's home or elsewhere including a tissy charity I do not know cos CF can be so bad sometimes but when it's good it's s...o good. |

Therefore, taking into account your comments PRIOR to the above, by your own admission, you bit the hand that fed you.  |

You shouldn't take it personal... as someone else mentioned anyone wishing to donate can do so without an agent. |

The struggle then was morally justified , I saw it atas such 50 years ago and still see it as such now.
How about a few euros from you mate , and don't give me the same answer as GR !! |
