Comment by Kai Von Pannier on October 22, 2008 at 10:34am: Hi friend!
I have just posted a new video on my profile, please take a look.It is a heartwarming and insipring story about Julio Collete of Mozambique who lost his legs through a landmine blast at the age of 8.

He has been supporting his ailing mother (his father died in the war) and managed to get through school. When we heard about him and his dream of working with computers, we had no hesitation in sponsoring his college fees. Since then he has been given new prosthetics and he has completed his diploma.

More than that he is now helping us locate and document the other victims of war in Mozamqbique. It is truly a story of 'giving back'.

The full movie was featured at the Paris October 2007 Film Festival to huge acclaim.

Despite this we still know of 19 000 others like him in Mozamqbique and we need your help!
With peace,love
