I thoroughly recommend a visit to the following 3 websites.
www.thehumanpotentialtrust.org
The Human Potential Trust exists to challenge the present day ‘me first’ mindset and offers an alternative perspective, a more mature and inclusive paradigm. Some recently added short ‘How to change’ films excellently illustrate this possibility in a straightforward and direct way.
The Wildlife For All Trust cares for indigenous animals, some rare, on its Wilderness Reserve of 125 square kilometres in South Africa. It exemplifies what can be achieved with strong commitment and an alternative mindset. The small dedicated team involved with running these two charities work non-paid, including the directors, so that donations can be fully and more effectively employed.
And if you are interested in changing to a vegetarian diet you will find www.lettuceleaf.org a useful introduction and guide.
