Want to Help? Here's how!
What's
the Point
So,
we have a charming, quaint village in the heart of a nation miles
away. So why help, why bother?
After World
War I America turned its back on Germany and Europe while our victorious
allies extracted their reparations. The result was a humiliated,
super-depressed Germany that turned to Hitler as its "last,
best hope" for revival.
After WWII we
offered the Marshall Plan and not only gained Germany as a friend
and ally, but also stabilized Central Europe, Western Europe and
contained Communism. Nice investment.
We have the
same option now: help the former Soviet Block countries, or turn
our backs and await the explosion.
Some
of us in Fort Wayne (who are these people)
have decided to help a village where we can make a difference. We
have mustered the area Lions
Clubs to help. Local educators have pitched in. Some business
people have stepped forward. Friends in Baltimore have joined the
effort.
