I wish they were around for me: I told my mother I was gay when I was 15. My father responded by beating me up, breaking my arm in the attack and then he threw me out of the house. i had no where to go and so returned home after 4 days in a bus shelter and agreed not to be gay. the rest is history.<br /><br />Nick<br />http://gaymoneyman/blogspot.comNChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05922579492507121347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10667700.post-56640582906572360462010-12-12T00:04:50.778+00:002010-12-12T00:04:50.778+00:00Cool GB, I'm sure the Albert Kennedy Trust wil...Cool GB, I'm sure the Albert Kennedy Trust will put the money to good use, as I'm sure the other charities will.

So I've ended up making the following donations: £200 to each of <a href="http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/" rel="nofollow">Help for heroes</a>, <a href="http://www.crisis.org.uk/" rel="nofollow">Crisis</a>, <a href="http://www.actionagainsthunger.org.uk/" rel="nofollow">Action Against Hunger UK</a>, <a href="http://www.cancerresearchuk.org/" rel="nofollow">Cancer Research UK</a>, <a href="http://www.tacade.com" rel="nofollow">Tacade</a>, <a href="http://www.foodchain.org.uk/" rel="nofollow">Fook Chain UK</a>, <a href="http://www.gmfa.org.uk/" rel="nofollow">GMFA</a>, <a href="http://www.msf.org.uk" rel="nofollow">Médecins Sans Frontières</a>, but £500 to the <a href="http://www.akt.org.uk/" rel="nofollow">Albert Kennedy Trust</a> given all the support in the above comments. I also sent an email to <a href="http://www.blogger.com/profile/05922579492507121347" rel="nofollow">Gay Money Man</a> asking him which of the registered Rambert dance charities would be the right one for the donation, and if I get a response I'll given them £100. It all adds up to £2.2k, slightly over budget, but it is Christmas after all!<br /><br />GB xxxGBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07046768019709916759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10667700.post-52571230746290607432010-12-08T04:50:39.825+00:002010-12-08T04:50:39.825+00:00The Albert Kenedy Trust looks very worthy to me.The Albert Kenedy Trust looks very worthy to me.CBnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10667700.post-76485564646442499272010-12-08T01:35:55.678+00:002010-12-08T01:35:55.678+00:00@Antony The ed materials are how Tacade made some ...@Antony The ed materials are how Tacade made some money.
