Camtu Pham
Camtu Pham is a very busy lady... not only is she the Managing Director of CleverLink and Food for My Brain, a university lecturer, international speaker, author and mother to a young family; Camtu also helps raise money for The Fred Hollows Foundation.
Camtu's story is very inspiring! In 1984 she migrated to Australia from Vietnam with her family. When she arrived, she could not speak a word of English but was determined to achieve her goals and dreams.
In 2004, Camtu completed her first book - Aim High Fly Fast - which aims to inspire readers to discover their strengths and help fast track success.
Camtu kindly donates 20% of each sale to The Foundation. To order a copy visit Food for My Brain website.
Camtu's Fundraising Tip
Part of my aim in writing this book is to help those less fortunate than me. I vividly remember the work that Fred was doing when I was growing up. I admired him and his team for their dedication, talents and generosity!
I selected The Foundation amongst many other organisations because of their reputation not only in Australia but around the world. It is also good to know that for as little as $25, we are making a difference in someone's life.
The Foundation has done so much for disadvantaged people around the world and this includes the people in my home country, Vietnam. Helping raise money is my way of saying THANK YOU!
There are so many things we can do BUT I think the easiest way to fundraise is to incorporate it into your every day activities. In my case, I invested hundreds of hours to write Aim High Fly Fast.
If you are a business person, why not organise a networking function. Ask your clients, colleagues and business partners to come along. Ask everyone to make a donation. Have fun, do business and raise some money at the same time!
