And we met the goal as we have done it all these 40 years.
I am never sure that the goal will be reached. This year, with the pandemia and with elections in less than a month, I thought that people would be more interested in other things.
So yesterday, as soon as it started, I opened my laptop to get into my Bank and deposited my share. Every bit counts.
And we made it

I am very happy.
Things have changed a lot for disabled children since this started. They aren´t only helped to get better, but, as a beautiful spastic girl said last night, this helped the whole society to SEE them. Now supermarkets give jobs to some of them and that is very important. I´m sure that there are other places where they accept disabled people take care of themselves.
I´ll now go to read some of your posts. See you.

Every year, along these 40 years, every year surpasses the last one.

It has always been reached in these 40 years. Every year, the goal had to be bigger than the previous one.

I'm glad the telethon was successful and that more people are helping the disabled to thrive and survive.

I'm glad to hear that the goal was reached. I'm also glad that awareness has been raised in your country.
