– you wrote:</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><i><font size=2 face=Arial><span
lang=EN-CA style='font-size:10.0pt;font-style:italic'>Lisa Heft is personally
providing this service to Open Spacers from around the world who have
difficulty getting access to World Wide OSonOS events. She is a channel
for limited funds (mostly pocket money) and a personal support to those who
want advice on travel. </span></font></i></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=black face="Trebuchet MS"><span
lang=EN-CA style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Trebuchet MS";color:black'>Yes,
it is a little project I do every year – and it is a great pleasure to do
so. Let me adjust and elaborate the description above - I would say
instead that I am a channel for <u>resources</u> (I help people name what they
need and invite others to offer what they have – for the WOSonOS events, and
help raise awareness for what we can share. Like the person in the
village who walks through the village calling out the news. Who
needs, who can share what they have. Sometimes ‘Givers’ offer ‘Askers’
home stays, a little money if they cannot pay the entire registration amount,
books to take home to their country, a dinner, rides, friendship from someone
who speaks the same language, some pocket money – those little bits that
can make a difference for people with less income or access). The limited funds
part is right – when I am given funds by ‘Givers’ I use it to
help the most people each in a little tiny way. So the idea for my little
project is to help everyone look after each other and ask for support if they
need it. And I don’t give advice on travel (but perhaps others
among you, dear colleagues, have good ideas for how and where Askers can seek
funding for travel in addition to the wonderful support we often get from our
own community). </span></font></p>
