Australian boys fundraising for Saleem

Last Saturday Glenn Grandy from Melbourne, Australia emailed me. His son, Jylon, had read about Saleem al-Harazi, the young Yemeni boy blinded by a bullet on March 18, 2011 in Sana’a.

Jylon was so upset by Saleem’s story he wanted to try and do something for him. On Sunday October 28 a 10 year-old boy in Australia, along with his 8 year-old brother Ashton (pictured above), will be walking six kilometres to Doncaster Primary School in Melbourne to raise money for a 12 year-old boy in Yemen.

A child in Australia, inspired by a young boy in Yemen. The two have never met and live thousand of miles apart. As children they and their respective siblings have shown a heart-warming example of humanity.
