Help one Starfish
Donation protected
I am raising funds for a fellow human in need! I want to provide a 6 month financial runway for a person who is in the process of reinvention on multiple levels. They have experienced a perfect storm. 1. Divorce from a very wounded and vengeful partner, placing four young children harms way. 2. Loss of employment. Currently in the process of reinventing career and earning potential. 3. Potential loss of rental residence, necessitating relocation of kids school in mid year. Please donate anonymously!
This is a straight up charity request, no strings attached, for a single person. A starfish story. "A young man is walking along the ocean and
sees a beach on which thousands and thousands
of starfish have washed ashore. Further along
he sees an old woman, walking slowly and
stooping often, picking up one starfish after
another and tossing each one gently into the
ocean.
“Why are you throwing starfish into the
ocean?,” he asks.
“Because the sun is up and the tide is going out
and if I don’t throw them further in they will
die.”
“But, old woman, don’t you realize there are miles
and miles of beach and starfish all along it!
You can’t possibly save them all, you can’t even
save one-tenth of them. In fact, even if you
work all day, your efforts won’t make any
difference at all.”
The old woman listened calmly and then bent
down to pick up another starfish and threw it
into the sea. “I made all the difference to that one.”
