Dear Friends,
A belated welcome to the New Year but I held off until today because of the special day that it is.
Yes, that is correct, it is our second birthday but as I review these first two years, it feels more like ten years.
So much has happened since the humble beginnings two years ago.
The
two years have often been a battle for team members, either in the
aspects of our movement, or in their personal lives as they have faced
much opposition because of the fact that we are reaching out to help
victims of abuse, regardless of race, creed or colour.
However,
despite the battles, we have seen great victories with well over 1
million visitors to the site and many people who have thanked us for
being an encouragement and for providing links to where they can get
the help that they need. Above all, there is the comments that it is
great to know that people care, and that comment coming in always
brings tears to my eyes every time I read such a comment, because that
is encouragement and strength to such victims.
What started two
years ago as a song to help raise awareness of the problem of abuse,
has grown into a fully fledged organisation that is providing
encouragement to to a myriad of people through our very active and
growing website and covering the whole world.
I thank all those
who, visibly or behind the scenes, have contributed, encouraged and
guided what we are doing. These are from many nations, are of both
sexes and have a range from below 10 years to over 80 years of age and
from all walks of life. From that you can see we are appealing to a
potentially huge group of people. Just about all of our team are
victims of some type of abuse during their lives but have chosen to use
their experiences so as to help others.
Let's look forward to another great year of encouraging people to fight back.
Bob
