As we all know, Africa needs help in several issues that they have.

So if we start a fundraising project with an eBook we can send some donations and contribute.

I know that this type of projects works very well.I worked in the past with my eBook "Mysteries Anywhere" ( for the last Chilean big Earthquake) , Thinking About Japan, and in Secret Impressions from Paralabs.


I will start to make the eBook so if you want to be part of this and send me an idea, effect, essay, anything, just contact me via PM or mail.

Right now we have a VERY special contribution that I will reveal after.
Thanks!

Another wonderful initiative by Pablo. He continues to be a true inspiration and, when it comes to a heart that is as large and creative as its mind, an exemplum of the best we have in our art.

Another project ? As we know, the funds rised will be like a drop of water in the ocean. So it help nothing, nobody. Another wonderful initiative by Pablo for more personal exposure and marketing tools.

We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean.
But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.

I don't trust this proyect.

For me it seems like an atempt of you Pablo to return in here after being exposed using fake users as marketing tools.

I really want to be wrong about this... I am just expressing my real thoughts.

I will not debate with you in here that thing about fake users because I ask you on private to send me real proofs of that, you didn't reply.


If anyone has doubts about this, its fair and each one has their own rights to place their thoughts, but let me tell you something...

I have a really interesting and worrying conversation with a friend of mine yesterday who came back from Africa working on a small village.
There is a lot of people that REALLY need help out there and this project can be our drop in the ocean.

So far we have 4 contributors, 5 more that are working in their own contributions and 5 Depicting Thought Set, cortesy of Paralabs.org just for $100 .

Why do most people here have to be on the offensive straight away? Pablo is just attempting to help out. If everybody had the same mentality and we all made comments like 'Its just a drop in ocean' then nothing at all would ever get done (by anyone).

I thought that in times of crises, we are supposed to put our differences aside and at least make some sort of attempt to show we care. I will definitely send you a piece of my material to add to the ebook. I really am ashamed that people are trying to see maliciousness in someone's attempt to do a good deed.

My points made here are NOT points for debate; I am not interested in arguing with people and the initial question here is rhetorical, just in case anyone makes attempts to answer it.

all the best.

I think Pablo's doing a great thing, anything that we can do to help the people who are less fortunate than ourselves is always worth supporting. I too don't understand the point of all the negativity towards it.

Good on you Pablo, I think what you're doing is a brilliant thing Smile

Thanks for your support in this project guys (and girls Smile)


As I claim 100% of the donations will go to GlobalGiving.

And obviously that anyone could send privately donations to foundations, but participating in this project gives you the "Africa" eBook .


@Dynamike: I didn't understand your question, but the contributors will receive the eBook in their emails after the release of the first edition.

How much of the money goes in the staff (worker's) pocket? I understand 100% goes to the organization. But how will the organization give to the workers, and how much will go to the residence in need?

I seen a special on television one time explaining how some organizations keep 70% for the workers, and give 30% to the residence in need.
