Please consider donating to "Doctors Without Borders"
This is a quick message not a full episode and I just wanted to say a few words about donations, essentially this: If you’re thinking of sending me a donation this Christmas, you could instead consider sending your donation to a charity in order to help people who are in need of our assistance at the moment. So, rather than sending something to me, send it to others, by using a reputable charity like Doctors Without Borders, or Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) by going to http://www.msf.org/en/donate Episode page: https://teacherluke.co.uk/2016/12/22/a-quick-message-about-donations-please-consider-donating-to-doctors-without-borders-to-help-people-in-need/ Hosted on Acast.
