Volunteer Blogs 1/. I have been volunteering with CfC since late last year and done about 3 markets only at Paddington in Sydney. All the days have been in fine weather and always had good company- e.g.Yana and Allison
(Dali, CfC Market Volunteer) 2/.Received a lovely email on 4/3/12 from Marion reprinted below. She bought one of our mats the week before at Paddo market and was so thrilled that she was making a difference.
"Hello[Dali]
thank you for sharing some of your Carpets for
Communities stories and information with me last weekend at the
Paddington Markets, Sydney.
I have really been
enjoying the pink carpet i purchased and wonder whether Chhuon Chhom
might like to see where it ended up. I've attached a picture if she's
able to receive it. Thanks for offering to forward it on. Please also
pass on my thanks to her as i have really enjoyed using the carpet!! It
is also nice to read a little about how it was made.
I hope i might be able to make it back to the Paddington Markets again soon. I'm really glad to be able to contribute.
regards
Marion" With the help of the CfC crew in Cambodia we have been able to give Chhoun Chhom a photo (see it in the photo gallery) and pass on Marion's words of appreciation. (Dali, Market Stall attendant, 5/3/12)
