O.K. so here's the report from last Friday's L.W.W. session.  It was held at the Waranga Hospital in the day room.  First up we had a couple of women speaking about philanthropy, which is a big word which means that an individual of a business wants to give money back to the community without receiving anything in return.  Actually, they do receive something, because it makes it look like they're helping people, which makes consumers want to buy their products.  Sylvia Admans, from F.R.R.R. spoke about her Foundation for Regional and Rural Renewal, which links small community groups to many different foundations who can help financially.  The second Speaker, Jan Mahoney, then spoke about the aims of the Geoffrey Gardiner Foundation, which seeks to help dairy farming communities, which encompasses most of Victoria, apart from the Wimmera, where you can't see a bovine for miles.
