Dear David, I am very grateful for the opportunity to contribute in such meaningful, material ways through you and your work. It is an honour and I send heartfelt thanks.
And it all started when I read a book about a cat!
David, My life is enriched by your substack - by both the weekly essays and the knowledge that I am helping animals and humans that I might never meet.
Thank you for your dedication to serve the needs of the vulnerable children and animals in Zimbabwe and giving people like me the opportunity to contribute and experience a glimpse of life in Zimbabwe through Mindful Safari🙏.🪷
In addition to my work as Zen teacher for 30+ years, I was a teacher/librarian for 3-14yr. olds for 33 years. I love the fact that you are finding ways to support this school, but am wondering if there are other ways for us to contribute usefully?
Thats very kind, thanks Misha. Sadly, with no postal services in Zim, physically getting stuff to the school is quite a mission. But rest assured there other some very savvy supporters helping the school as of this year.
You are too kind, Penelope! Inviting friends to subscribe is wonderful thank you. And we are actively setting up a means by which donations can get through to useful causes in Zim from USA, UK, AU and elsewhere. As soon as this happens - the ball is in others' court - I will do an update!
David one regret i have is that when Scott and i did our mindful safari, the school was on holidays and we missed out on a visit. Glad to see your ongoing work bearing fruit, so to speak!
Dear David, thank you for these moments of helping me feel truly useful in this big world. Please let us know if and when a special donation would help this school and the other causes we support through you.
I have worked on education programs in Rwanda and DR Congo, so I very much understand the depth of need and also the enormous reward of the work you are doing in Zimbabwe.
David, how auspicious that you were there to meet the need and, give all of us who contribute through you, the chance to be of service. Heart felt thanks to you for the opportunity to do some good in the world.
I’m so pleased to find your emails because your content is always rooted in heartfelt goodness. Your recognize opportunities where others would most certainly turn away, inspiring us to continually lead our lives mindfully, remembering what really matters. I’m honored to be part of your giving programs.
Thank you David for this heart warming feedback. You certainly recognize opportunities and manage to spread your caring. If this is not Buddhist work, then I don’t know what is. I feel blessed that i have come to know you

Thanks David. I am already a subscriber, how can I get more money to you? I've gotten all my Buddhist friends to join.
Visiting the school last summer was such a privilege and so eye-opening.
