Q: Would you like to send a message to Wendy?
A: Dear Wendy Bowman, Such a smile I have on my face since reading, quite unexpectedly, of your Award and of the Goldmans. There is so much of destruction and negativity in the media. So much of it I no longer read or listen to. I do what small things I can – sign petitopns, send regular donations and inform myself about positive actions. But you and your actions have stirred and heartened me more than I can say. To me you are a mensch. This is a high compliment given to a person of rare qualities, who has a sense of what is right and who acts with integrity and honour.
Thank you for all you have done.
