If you venture into the city on a Friday you have to be prepared for the charity collectors. I have no problem with this.. but it's a case of making choices which is not easy because they are all amazing causes. Today my money went, without hesitation to Legacy, a charity 'providing services to Australian families suffering financially or socially after the incapacitation or death of a spouse or parent during or after their defense force service'. Wouldn't you think that the world had had enough of wars, by the state of current world affairs it would seem not! My other donation went to a man needing train fare, I felt that if I could spend $4.70 on a coffee, I couldn't possibly refuse :) Here's hoping that you have a fab weekend, spring rain here in Perth yay! Take care and stay safe...p.s. Bill has some colourful creatures to see!
That really is a great cause and you had to handsome fellows to make your donation with. I agree about the state of the world. It really is a mess and getting worse every day.
ReplyDeleteLOVE java! I'll donate there.
ReplyDeleteLegacy sounds like a more than worthy cause!
ReplyDeletehet is van alle tijden en over heel de wereld maar het is heel mooi als mensen zich er weer voor opwerpen.
ReplyDeleteOh, there's also Bocelli cafè :) great initiative of Legacy...Arianna
ReplyDeleteYou have me wanting to share a coffee with you now. Cheers!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a worthy charity!
ReplyDeleteThe coffee looks delicious and it reminds me of a TV Series/Travel show called "The Great Italian Cafe". The host was a guy from Melbourne who toured cafes all over Italy and then he ended the series in Melbourne. I have to admit I was a little envious of his job. Maybe he could start a new season in Perth. :-) Also, I happened to notice the reflection in the coffee cup.
Up for legacy, that's a good cause to defend and help !
ReplyDeleteWell done. And nice double portrait too! I give to a few charities every year...
ReplyDeleteGood for you, Grace!
ReplyDeleteIt does sound like a good cause.
ReplyDeleteI still can't get past the cost of coffee in Perth.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great week end Grace.
ReplyDeleteYou are a generous sweetie, Grace.
ReplyDeleteThis post somehow exemplifies the grand character of OZ folks, as embodied in your own frank genial friendship, and easy sharing with others. Bless you, G

Wow, that is a nice looking cup of coffee.
ReplyDeleteThese guys look like happy chappies. And with so many of us against war, wouldn't you think we could overwhelm those who do want war.
ReplyDeleteYou are right about the war business, don't not what is going on in the world at the moment. People never learn something from the past....
ReplyDeleteA good cause should always be supported.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Carl and many of the others here.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend!
A good decision to donate, Grace.... I go with biebkriebels...
ReplyDeleteYou'd think our governments would do a better job of supporting families who've lost someone in a war! OKAY, I'll get off my soapbox. At least people like you step in to help fill the void.
ReplyDeleteA good cause indeed.
