Buses for Life: Fundraising for children in PNG
February 25, 2010 by Megan · Leave a Comment
Join Megan Bayliss in fund raising and international service to children in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea.
Either join our mail list for further information about a planned trip to Port Moresby in July to work with PNGCCS (PNG Christian Community Services) and the children of Port Moresby, or, donate a cash amount that can be given to PNGCSS for their Buses for Life program (contact Megan directly if you wish to make a cash donation).
Buses for Life
Fund raising target is K300,000 (that is only 123,484.28 AUD).
Attached is the brief outlining a proposed “Buses for Life” program planned for PNGCCS 2010: Buses for life program outline. With the first program, ‘Strongim Pikinini’ functioning strong and effectively it is time to increase the impact further into the community.
With poverty, illiteracy, disease and breakdown of the fabric of family life a daily reality for thousands of city & fringe dwellers, this program aims to mobilise community support by outreaching to young and old right where they live in the settlements.
‘Buses for Life’ is a vehicle to ease burdens using practical help. People helping People!
Are you willing to do good or just think about doing good? There’s a big difference felt by the children in need. Between now and our social justice tour in July, Megan Bayliss will be fund raising and organising workshops, donated by you and me, to be conducted in July at Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea. Join our mail list to be kept informed and for fund raising options.

Feed your professional soul

The Two Wolves
One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. He said, ‘My son, the battle is between two ‘wolves’ inside us all..
One is Evil.
It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret , greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.
The other is Good.
It is joy, peace , love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.
The grandson thought about it for a minute… And then asked his grandfather: ’Which wolf wins?’
The old Cherokee simply replied, ‘The one you feed .’
Peer Supervision is a good feed. Have you yet registered to feed your professional soul yet?
I am feeding my professional soul a little dessert in July by going to Papua New Guinea. The Kokoda trip is off because of insufficient numbers of people wanting to self torture, BUT, the work at an orphanage in Port Moresby is still on. Five days: we present workshops, help with teaching parenting skills for the under 5’s and do what ever is most needed.
Hungry? Contact Megan Bayliss for further information.

FREE accommodation to Human Service Professionals
January 9, 2010 by Megan · 3 Comments
Just raised an accommodation around the world forum for members of my new Peer Supervision site for Human Service professionals.
FREE Billets around the world
Human Service Professionals love to travel, love learning new cultures, meeting new people and helping wherever they can because we are into social understanding and inclusion. Help each other out: If you have a bed or a room to billet out, or a house to house sit, list it here. If you are contacted by a member, it is then up to you to do negotiations with that person.
If you want to offer a FREE billet to a human service professional, go advertise it on the site (members only, join here).
If you are a travelling Human Service professional and looking for free accommodation, ask for that or check out what’s already available. We all love to travel and free, safe, non discriminatory accommodation with like minded people is wonderful.
If we cannot now end our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity.
