RONALDO, The CUTEST kinder kid EVERI have been apart of an amazing group of people who have returned from East Timor that participated in the Child Friendly Space – Children on the Edge (COTE) Playscheme 2008.
To live in the community and experience all aspects of East Timor is an experience that I will never forget – nor will I give up on. Not everyone will want to go, or feel like they could go – but there are lots of ways that you can still participate and ensure that this centre runs and provides the village of Viqueque a safe space where children are welcome to learn and play – regardless of income, race and religion.
The journey began in December when my application was successful and that’s when the fundraising began – this enable us to purchase supplies and to fund our expenses of airfares and accommodation. It was a challenging time to raise the funds – but I believe that we all created awareness about this organisation and the amazing work it does.
Tri massagers are the best way The Body Shop staff can contribute, by promoting the values behind this groovy little gadget – not only will The Body Shop Australia donate the whole $9 profit to COTE East Timor, you will also support Teddy Exports another amazing Community Trade group.
You can also jump online to www.childrenontheedge.org and make a direct donation to East Timor.

I think it's amazing what you're doing. Do you know if the US Body Shops are participating in this as well?
