Invest 0,5% get 3600% Return

0,5% Effort, 100% Impact, 3600% Return

Some leverage, right? Who would not like those odds.

For a few years now I have been doing exactly that. I spend 0,5% of my annual "effort" to make 100% of that effort count and those kids above get 3600% Return.

The math is simple: 0,5% is one single day of work in a year. If you donate the income of that one single day to vzw Do Well, John and Oetje make sure 100% of that value makes an impact. And since the Gross National Income for Myanmar is 36 times less than that of Belgium our 1 euro provides them (at least) 36 times more value.

1 hour of our income provides for an average salary of 4,5 DAYS in Myanmar. If 7 people donate 1 hour (0,02% - 2 hunderth of a percent, 0,02 cents per Euro!) it can cover a MONTH's salary for a teacher. Just based on the average income per person.

Is all of the above exact mathematics? No. Will it make a difference? Absolutely.

Head on over to www.vzwdowell.com and find out how you can donate. They make sure 100% of every euro donated goes to those who need it in Myanmar. They do this by providing a healthy environment for orphans to live in, educating them (especially girls) in the basics to improve their lives and providing food and basic comforts we all take for granted. It isn't just a handout either, they make sure the solutions are durable and sustainable so that those who get the support can become self sufficient.

"There are so many charities", I hear you say, "why this one?". Because the people behind this organisation do this at their own expense. No complicated or hidden board structures or facilities that need to be paid. Everything goes directly to the beneficiaries.

We are in the season for giving. Why not share a little bit and make the world a better place.

Thank you for helping me, help them help so many...
