Dragon Fence




I have had the great personal pleasure in the past two weeks to be involved with a very worthwhile project at Komodo Island Village

Below is a post by Mark Drewlow, Founder of Yacht Aid Global, describing the project.

September 16 - Dragon Fence Update

Imagine being a child. You wake up and start your daily routine. Clothes, food, out the door to school. School is fun. You are with friends and you get to learn new things every day.

Classes are in session and you need to use the restroom. You venture outside very very carefully. The buddy system is required, bring a friend in case there is a dragon attack one of you can go for help.



That has all changed. Tim as you know, is the Captain of the sailing yacht VIVID. During a school supply delivery several weeks ago Tim recognized the need for a fence that would alter the daily routine of the school kids. After careful planning and execution, Tim made it happen, he provided funding and man power, C2C and the Drewelow family provided funding too.



Nice to be part of such an interesting project.A simple project, and at the same time has a meaningful positive change in the routine of those kids. Imagine the stress level of a child always having to watch out for those pesty dragons. Now the kids can stay focused on being students, and enjoy their childhood a bit more with their friends.

Best regards to everyone and hoping you all can figure out some creative ways to get out there and YAG. Mark
