Charity

Philippine photographers show their mercenary side, and Charo is incensed.
I think those people missed the point. (Except for Charo, who’s right on. =) )

Yes, it would be nice if the Ayala Foundation offered some
compensation. But hey, it’s not just about money. An opportunity to
meet four other photographers who care enough about the country to
donate their time, _and_ an opportunity to establish or improve
relations with the Ayala Foundation… Not bad! _Plus_ you get the
warm and fuzzy feeling of having helped out. Good stuff.

I’m in Toronto right now, and I’m still making room in my budget for
charity. I’m definitely looking for something I can donate time to.
Hmm, maybe I can check if the Hospital for Sick Kids will let me
volunteer to tell stories or something like that…
