The big TV charity event. the Whole of Norway gather around the Tv, on the square and gatelangs with bøsser. Now we can show how generous (wealthy) we are!
this Year’s TV-action goes to the Red Cross and their fabulous national and international work. The red Cross is not alone in this work, and it should not TV-aksjonen and Frivillighet Norge pretend to either.
I say no way that you are not going to support the Red Cross. The red Cross does a fantastic job, national and international. This year’s TV-action goes to Syria, Lebanon, South Sudan, Afghanistan, Myanmar, Somalia, El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras where the population daily experience umenneskeligheter the majority of us have no idea the scope of.
the Funds will also go to help refugees who have come to Norway. I’m the first to say that this is a fantastic and important cause. I am very happy that this year’s TV-action went to the Red Cross.
stop me did not from to be very critical of the quarantine Frivillighet Norge, agreed with its member organisations in 2008. In short, recommend Volunteering Norway organizations in Norway to frastå from conducting the collection in three weeks; two weeks in advance of the TV aksjonshelgen, as well as a week in the aftermath of the TV-aksjonen. This I believe is totally unnecessary.
Yes, TV-aksjonen is a national institution which stands in a unique position, and yes, it is important that people mobilise around this.
another page, such a recommendation requires the closest that the Red Cross, or any organization, the TV campaign goes to, is tilstedte everywhere. It is, of course, not the case. There are hundreds of thousands of people, as in this case the Red Cross doesn’t help.
Although the collection will go to the nine countries with a great need for support, omits the innumerable people. No one can help everyone, but together we can help many.
major organisations may not be three weeks without active collection a lot, they have like millions on the book. For smaller organisations in the refugee camps, or other measures in inland and abroad is three weeks, however, absolutely essential.
Frivillighet Norge says albeit on their websites that the organizations who work with national or international distress/emergency, of course, must be able to drive fundraising in quarantine – a hue that could have been communicated better. What is needed to call something a crisis? Must human life be in immediate danger, or is that a few million people are stranded in various camps with an uncertain future and destroyed in the past?
Give so it stings, then give the amounts. Use what expression you want. The point that today is a superb day to remember for the privileged we are. We live safe and well, and the vast majority are have-boggling lot of money at their disposal. Today is the day to dispose of it properly.
Donate to the Red Cross, give to the large organizations, giving to small organizations. Because even though we are not on the Tv prime time, we help together hundreds of thousands of people. Each and every day.
