Mahboba's promise

Sometimes I forget how lucky I am as a woman to ..

• live in Australia
• be able to support myself and my son through Ripple
• have the freedom not to be financially dependant on a bloke
• be safe, happy and secure

 

And then I see a programme like the 7.30 report on Mahboba's Promise, a formidable Australian women helping widows and children in Afghanistan.

And I realise just how ridiculously lucky I am as a woman in Oz.

So part of our profits at Ripple are now heading towards sponsoring orphans, purchasing sewing machines and sponsoring widows in Afghanistan through Mahboba's promise.

Some other stories are at the abc and interviews with Geraldine Dougue
