Donation to the Children Cancer Hospital
Account Balance

Historic

Alan (VK0MM) has nominated the CW Sao Paulo Group (CWSP) as his QSL manager for the one day AX0LD operation from Macquarie Island and declined to accept any excess monies from the QSLing process. Instead, he requested to donate the exceeding to Sao Paulo Children Cancer Hospital e.g. the Fundacao Antonio Prudente.

The CWSP at December 06 2000 made the official donation, US$ 1,000.00, among a letter with the following words:

"From the international Amateur Radio community as a mark of thanks to Alan Cheshire who operated from Macquarie Island as AX0LD on 26th January 2000".
