Of course, I&#8217;ll also be mentioning my participation in the Walk for Women, and that people can support the hospital by sponsoring me!<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to sponsor me, please do. You can donate through the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hamlinfistula.org.au\/donate.html\" target=\"_blank\">Australian Fistula Fund&#8217;s website<\/a>. Please specify &#8220;Walk for Women: Yvette Stanton&#8221; in the &#8216;Event&#8217; field. If you know me in real life, you can also hand me the real money, and I will fill out a donation form for you, and the fund will issue you with a receipt. All donations of $2.00 and over are tax deductible.<\/p>\n<p>When I last invited sponsorships, one of my valued readers in the UK let me know that she was unable to, as she didn&#8217;t have an Australian postcode. I have asked the fund to resolve this problem, and apparently they are still working on it. I will definitely let you know as soon as I know, when it has been fixed. You could always just enter a spurious one, such as &#8220;2000&#8221;&#8230; but then the receipt might not make it to you&#8230; \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I plan to have a lovely day in Adelaide (and on planes and in airports&#8230;) meeting with nice embroidery type people. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I&#8217;m off to Adelaide to speak at the launch of Inspirations magazine Issue 70.
