I gotcha and understand/agree! I was responding to the specific comment in relation to his race (highlighted).

Oh yes, yes yes - I know that's what you were responding to luv.



I was just saying that it doesn't matter at all - that regardless of his race, I don't think Mike will get the jist of what the response is trying to get across to him. He might just continue to see the responses as mean spirited.

Hope he gets thru.

More seems like he's searching for something else tho ... I don't know - maybe I'm wrong.

Either way, best of luck IM.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: HIELPEE</div><div class="ubbcode-body">you may contact Global Volunteers. They also have a division in Jamaica, St. Lucia, and Costa Rica. They accept the skills set of anyone....construction, landscaping, teaching, cleaning, etc. they do have a fee (which is 100% tax deductable). but for those interested in serving and that dont have the funds...they do have grants to cover travel expenses.

How long you stay depends on how much time you have and what they have going on.

good luck. </div></div> </div></div>

which is why i gave him the link to GV....I've done work with them and they do have funds to cover people who want to volunteer, but may not have the funds. I am not sure of what all the requirements are to get the grant (which is what they call it), but I know this organization...does take everyone (regardless of their skill set) and have funds (sometimes limited) to cover some/most expenses.

If he is serious...nothing hurts for him to try. </div></div> </div></div>
