As the Paris 2011 Homeless World Cup approaches
some of our teams still need some help to make it to the
World Cup to raise the money needed to help five nations
to cover the cost of travelling and other logistics.
.*.
Please help us to make the dreams of these players a reality
by making a donation and spreading the word!
Thank you very much!

The Homeless World Cup (HWC) Ulule.com have joined forces
to help five teams live a dream to reach the Paris Homeless
World Cup. This is your opportunity to support the homeless
players and even receive exclusive rewards ...

The Homeless Goalie.

Founded in 2003, the Homeless World Cup is a unique, pioneer-
ing social enterprise using football to energise homeless people to
change their own lives for the better. An annual first class inter-
national football tournament is staged as a celebration of the
yearly achieveents of the HWC a network of more
than 70 national partners.
.*.
Ulule.com is supporting the Homeless World Cup by collect-
ing funds to enable players from five economically poorer
nations to reach this year’s tournament held at Champs de
Mars, Paris, France from 21-28 August 2011. For the players
this represents an unlikely chance to realise a dream shared by
millions: to wear their national colours with pride, enjoy
the adulation of the crowd and represent their country.

on the lives of homeless people worldwide: “The Paris
2011 Homeless World Cup is an opportunity for homeless
people to move from being invisible to stand proud on a
global stage, and be the true ambassadors for their
country that they are.”

From Melbourne To Milan. By Uncle Monty.
If you yourself cannot help financially, please tell some-
one or your company or your group that you know who
may or can help with some kind of donation toward one
of the five teams struggling to make ends meet to under-
write the cost of playing as homeless players at the
Paris 2011 Homeless World Cup. I have managed
to have two of my friends already send donations for
the Palestine and Cambodia homeless teams to play
at Paris. They are, by the way, the two same friends
of mine who refuse to buy The Big Issue under
any circumstances!!
.*.
Beyond that, the need to support HWC is that it truly
helps the homeless unlike some other organizations that
you and I know who are more interested in feathering their
own nests at the expense of homeless folkz for all, too,
many years. Under Mel Young's superb direction, The
World Homeless Cup that he founded is not in the business
of feathering its own nest off the backs of the homeless.
No sir! The WHC truly cares about helping the homeless
to achieve their best in life and to aim their aspirations
off the streets! Kicking a football works miracles for
the dignity and human worth of many a homeless
person at WHC.While, selling The Bill Issue
doesn't bring any miracles!!
.*.
Having attended four HWC gatherings from Melbourne
to Milan, I truly urge everybody to give their full support
to such a worth while organization like the Homeless
World Cup, which will see some 55+ countries repre-
sented exclusively by homeless players at the
Paris 2011 WHC.
BRAVO!!!
.*.
Also, if you can, but sure to pop over to Paris in
August to watch and see upfront the marvellous
football playing and the team comradie and national
pride and the uplifting spirit of the games that will
cost you absolutely nothing to watch and see and
to attend the 7 days of matches that will thrill the
life of you!! - it's totally FREE!! Bravo, again!!
.
But before that, please be sure to donate whatever
you can to ensure as many homeless players
can play at Paris 2011. Thankz alot ...

The NY Family of Inmate Gerard Domond Is Suing For
$50 Million Because They Say That By Calling Him An
"Inmate" Implies He's "Mating With Men" and the label
"Inmate" Not Only Stigmatizes Him But It Also Hurts
His Feelings. Oh, Boy! What Next? The 49 year-old
inmate is a convicted killer, too. Perhaps he'd prefer to
be called a "Jailbird" instead, just like Anthony John
Bird of The Big Issue once was!!!
