So fellow straw balers can you see who in your network of friends and business
associates are involved in Rotary, Lions or whatever and see what can be
done to raise immeditae funds for the items that Butch and his team at Hout
Bay need.<br>
<br>
Regarding rebuilding the750 homes sounds like a job for Builders Without
Borders but that is out of my league at the moment and all I can do is to
pass this news onto you all, I know that it is not strawbale related but
if this had happenned in Sydney or Los Angeles aid would be pouring in from
around the world by now. See what you guys can do for these people.<br>
<br>
Kind regards The Straw Wolf.<br>
