Today, I had the honour to be the guest of the opening of the second semester of the Ustka branch of the University of the Third Age. The meeting was organised in a beautiful Town Hall of the City of Ustka.
This time, I did not talk about my cruise, but I decided to tell the audience about two charity campaigns which I organised in cooperation with the Against The Odds Foundation: Cruise with Natasza and Medivet Cruise with Natasza. The subject of my presentation was not just random - you should know that the students of the University of the Third Age actively support the charity campaign whose aim is to help a person from Ustka in need. My story about the joy which I managed to give to the two children was meant to encourage everyone to help others. I also wanted to thank to all these good people from all around the world who helped me fulfil the dream of those two kids, laureates of Festiwal Zaczarowanej Piosenki (the Festival of the Magical Song) in Cracow. Once again - thank you so much, without your support, it wouldn’t have been possible!
This is what I talked about today, shedding a few tears when I remembered the smiling faces of Karolinka and Robert - these memories are the brightest gems of my journey... My audience couldn’t help crying, too - thank you very much for your sensitivity.
During the meeting, I organised a mini-trivial pursuit, and presented the award - a Hawaiian calendar. In exchange, I received a calendar with pictures of the students themselves! :)
On 22 March, a charity concert and auction will be organised for Pawełek Biełanowicz, who is now undergoing a chemo treatment, and needs all kind of help and financial support. The students of the University of the Third Age organised a mini auction already today - they sold hand-made flowers and cakes, and all the proceeds will go to Pawełek. I supported this case, too - I donated the book „Opowieści Wiatru i Morza” with an inscription and a special stamp of my solitary cruise, it will be auctioned on 22 March.
