Foods 4 Dudes!

Yo!

Well it has been a crazy couple of days in India. Wait I guess it's been over a week now. I don't know it's nuts man.

So Foods for Dudes! is now official!! What the hell is Foods for Dudes!???? Well quite simply it's a way for friends and fam to help out feeding dudes on the street!! As you can imagine, there is a multitude of people on the street here, and I can take 50 rupees (yeah like zelda!) which is about a dollar, and I can go to the bakery or local restaurant and give a warm meal and a big bottle of water to these people. And it's about more than the food, it's about the smile, and the handshake, and the eye contact and personal touch that comes from human to human interaction.

SO. I asked last time if this would be something that y'all would be interested in donating to, and I got enough positive responses to go ahead with it. I've created a button at the top of this page that you can go to to donate with paypal or credit card or whatever.

What it IS: -a way for you to directly donate money to help people eat.
-it's on the simple honor system, if you trust me you donate, if you don't then well i guess you don't!
-100% of your money goes to the bakery, then to the hands of a woman without legs living on the street
-proof that i'm a total sap :)

What it ISN'T: -politically/religiously affiliated. i'm not converting anyone or promoting any political agenda, so all my friends and family of different views and opinions can donate with a clear conscience.
-a way to fund my journey. i don't use this money for myself, obviously. 100% goes to the peeps.

SO. If this is something you're interested in giving to, then just click the button. Go ahead.... click the button!!

OH, this brings me to my next point. So what happens if I get $50+ in donations? That's a loooot of mutton masala. Well today I made a visit to the local girls orphanage. It's all girls that have been abandoned or come off the street, as well as elderly women with disabilities. I think I met every single one today on my visit! They are all so beautiful. The orphanage feeds, houses, clothes them etc., normal orphanage stuff yeah? Well I had a meeting with the head nun, she showed me all around, and I told her about the Foods 4 Dudes! project I was starting. I asked her about the best way we could help out (me and you) and she gave me a list of items that they are always in need of. Things like material to make clothes and bedding out of, soap, toothpaste, mattresses, oil, rice, sugar etc. So If we get enough money together then we'll be buying and delivering these items on Sunday.

Now, we set sail for Oman on MONDAY or TUESDAY, so if you intend on donating, please do it as soon as you can!! I plan to buy the materials on saturday and deliver them on Sunday. Also, if you have a preference to where your money goes, let me know.

Ok I'm done typing for now. I'll tell you about almost losing the boat in between 2 giant iron barges and the crazy casino night some other time.

DONATE PLEASE!!

Love Willy
