I live in a rural mining port town, the town is one of those ones where people just work hard, do what they need to do and live happily.
This community has been slammed in recent years by floods and storms, so many people have lost everything - everything except their kindness.
This morning, on the local radio, a lady called in desperately, she and her children had been in a bad car accident - her little 3 year old daughter has been critically injured - quadriplegic. I know of this family, they would not ask for help unless they were unbelievably desperate.
Within a few hours, the funds needed for the medical care have been raised from the community, and soon I'm going out to join a work crew to construct the wheel chair ramps for her house.
Love being a volunteer!
