Organisations We Support

My wife and I make ongoing or annual donations to a number of news organisations and charities. Some do vital work in our community. Others are working to dislodge the aberration — and his cronies — currently occupying Washington.

I am easily frustrated by people who claim a religious upbringing yet treat those in need with hatred and disdain. Their ideologies have nothing to do with compassion and everything to do with greed.

The noise coming out of Washington and the embarrassed states is, I strongly believe, a smokescreen designed to make us all servants of the ultra-rich. Why else do our governments do nothing meaningful about housing affordability or quality public education, while funding elite schools, tolerating hate speech, and ignoring the impervious behaviour of “social” networks that operate with zero accountability?

We live in one of the richest countries on earth, yet I have to give up my hard-earned to help ensure those around us do not go without — and are hopefully given some fair treatment.
