Reminder About Travel Blog and Donations

Published by Kirsty under Fundraising

I’ve had a couple of comments lately saying they would like to hear more about my travels so I thought I’d make a quick post pointing you all to my travel blog. I try to stick to web working related things on Nerdy Nomad but I’ve got a full blown travel blog over at Wanderstruck with all the gory details of my time spent in each place.

HODRAlso, the people at Hands On, the organisation I’ve been volunteering with in Bangladesh, have finally set up a Paypal account. I have links available on my volunteering page over at Wanderstruck for a donation of $25 each. I think a couple of you were waiting for Paypal so if you still want a link, pop over to their site, click on the Paypal ‘Donate’ link in the left hand column (the ‘Please Give’ link on the upper right is still for creditcard donations only), make the donation (put that the donation is on behalf of me, Kirsty Henderson) and then forward on your donation confirmation along with your link details and I’ll put it up as soon as I can. If you want more than one link or want to give more, feel free! Donations are tax deductible but only for Americans I think.

Enjoy my travel blog and thanks to anyone who makes a donation, it’s a great cause!

Online in a Bangladeshi Village

Published by Kirsty under Fundraising

I’m in a pretty remote part of Bangladesh and online without any problems. Very cool. There are actually a whole load of people in the room clicking and tapping away at their computers as well.

I’ll keep this short because I’ve got to go work on my donations page over at my new site but I just wanted to say thanks to Ki from Oslo for Beginners and Samuel from Group Accommodation for $50 each. I thought I’d add your links here in case I don’t finish the new page for a bit.

If anyone else would like to snag a link on my soon to be established fund raising site then check out HODR’s sponser’s page, contribute at least $25 on behalf of me (Kirsty Henderson) and then forward the confirmation email my way. I’ve got tomorrow off so will work on the page tomorrow and have something up and running tomorrow night I hope. These guys really are doing some amazing work here but I think fundraising is always an issue so get involved if you can!
