This weekend sees the 29th edition of the Telethon, a TV based charity appeal. Last year the events organised by people and children raised 84 million euros for the chosen charities. The main beneficiaries are all health related, much going on research into neuro and muscular diseases, plus care for sufferers and education for families affected.
One of the children who might benefit is Sethi, the petit prince as his mother calls him. Taglines has featured the little local children Sethi and Laurent http://tag-on-line.blogspot.fr/2014/12/and-this-is-why-telethon-is-important.html
One of the local events is the offer to wash your car made by the pompiers in Laguepie. Usually accompanied by an offer of coffee and cake! Our cars are so infrequently washed that we always take advantage of this offer, which usually also means a little snack for the dogs. (One pompier was a little taken aback when Twister rather enthusiastically took the cake offered, and almost a couple of fingers with it - labradors are not too well mannered when it comes to food).
There is sure to be an event near you where you can show your generosity.
