    You’re such a very motivated and supportive friend to do this! I wish I am wise enough to propose and program, but I don’t. Instead, per your request, I did retweet! I love the design they have. Neat design with cool color combination. How stylish! I hope they will receive a lot of attention and wonderful ideas to help alleviate poverty in the Philippines.

      I agree… I wish I had an idea I could propose too! Sigh but there are other people who are ingenious at this so I hope that it reaches them!!! Thanks so much for retweeting Kaho! And hope you can also email to your friends who might be interested in this! I am grateful!
