Giving a Speech at the Gala

It was an honour and privilege to speak about my experience with the children living in the SOS Family that we support in Vari, Greece.

This event is dear to my heart as I have visited and spent time at the two SOS Children's Villages Greece families that are supported by this fundraiser gala, and the 'SOS Babies' Home' - a Centre that nurtures abused infants and babies.
