Give-away a la Trish

The untold story!

Last year when Mum came to visit us in Papua New Guinea she gave me an envelope with AU$500. This gift in kind was from Trish, a friend of Mum’s that had spent the best part of her earlier life living and working in PNG.

After more than a year I am pleased to share that every single cent (or toea) of Trish’s gift has been handed out and given away.

My understanding is that Trish wanted to remain anonymous – all good and proper – and a request that I will respect (other than her 1st name of course) – nevertheless and from an accountability point of view all donations that you send me are recorded and reported at Trupela Tok.

Trish’s gift was handed over the past year as follows:

Dec 2007 Coffin (Bubu Kandoni) K150
22/1/08 Ledger for Association K50
17/2/08 Bush Knife (Petrus) K18
24/2/08 Contribution (chickens) K40
27/2/08 Backpack purchased for Norm K80
30/3/08 Chauka Soccer Team K100
9/4/08 Bus fair (Russell) K10
20/5/08 Envelopes for Association K16
20/5/08 Keto-Tapasi Advert K440
3/6/08 Donation after fire K350
7/6/08 Coffee Perculator (GGH) K43
10/08 Association IPA Search K110

Total: K1407
