The article I ran cross this morning and made me to focus was about an American guy named "Mr. Patrick Kirk Gillock" who is very well-known in Nongkhai province (in the Northeast) as "Helmet Guy".
He would like to help solving this problem, so he initiated "Helmet Donation Project" with the donation from his friends in the U.S because he has no money as a volunteer and he sold everything he had when he was working and living in the U.S. before he came here.
The project is successful and the locals become to know him and name him as "Helmet Guy" since then. Everytime he gives away the helmets, he will say "Please put on the helmet to protect your life."
He expands the project to "Helping Independent Organization" with the aim to decrease the gap between "The Riches" and "The Poorest" to encourage the same standard of life.
The organization operates free course of English and computer and also encourage people to reserve the environment.
His students can be anyone but the only thing he asks is "please put on a helmet to come to school"
The operation cost is support by foreign donation and his pocket money. However, he's thinking about how to make the organization growing sustainably.
He decided to apply his professional in web design to create a website name "www.isara.com" or "www.isara.org". The concept is totally different from commercial website that the income from advertisement will be used to help the inferior, not for himself.
The more people know the website, the more they use instead of google, the more the inferiors will have better quality of life.
So, everytime you click on www.isara.com or www.isara.org, you're helping Thailand. It's easy and free.
Visit today to make a better world with your only click
