June 20 2009 we were invited to take video for YouTube of the Kelowna Yacht Club – ‘Boat for Hope Charity’ event.
The purpose of this event is to help bring a smile to the face of children with disabilities while also recognizing that siblings, parents and caregivers also need recognition and support. Organization for this event starts almost one year in advance; coordinating an event of this size with inherent difficulties is challenging but the Kelowna Yacht Club, its members, volunteers, supporting organization, charities and sponsors did a fantastic job.
Boat owners were down at the Kelowna Yacht Club as early as 6am to prepare the pirate theme of their boats. Entertainers, volunteers gave up their Saturday to make sure everything was attended to. There was a BBQ held for the families and children, hot dogs, smokies, pop and juice, fruit and ice cream and everything was donated by very generous sponsors all FREE. Musical performances, comedy, games – It was FANTASTIC. – THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF HOW TO DO THINGS RIGHT! ARRRR to the Kelowna Yacht Club and Sponsors and Volunteers of this amazing event!

A music video tribute I did for my last speech and presentation for my Public Speaking class.
When my class was given the assigment, we were told by our professor that we had to honor or pay tribute to someone or an organization. But I found out that I couldn’t honor just ONE person or group. So instead I dedicated this to various organizations around the world who make it their mission to help everyone.
The message here is that they deserve recognition, because as human beings we have a right of free-will and giving ISN’T something we HAVE to do; and that you don’t need a fat wallet to make contributions to help people. It can be anything from donating time to children, donating a can of food or a piece of clothing, or even you’re own blood.
If you’re in need, they’re out there. For all of us.
