Charity, done in a dress

I don’t do much charity work, or volunteering – but every March I wear a dress every day.

I am answering a challenge from the Milk Matters organisation, which provides donor breastmilk to premature babies. I wear a dress every day, and people sponsor me, much as they might sponsor a runner for every kilometre they run for a good cause, or a child for reading a book in a school Readathon.

In addition to raising funds for Milk Matters’s point of view, this yearly event raises awareness, because the challenge also involves posting pictures of yourself in a dress on social media.

Where I stand: A declaration of values and biases

2020 is my year of doing things differently.

Of course, it is everyone’s year of doing things differently.

But in the time before the Great Entroublement, I decided that I would spend this year thinking about what I am doing, instead of running from job to job, client to client, crisis to crisis.
