Help with the search for Madeleine McCann

DO YOU WANT TO HELP IN THE SEARCH FOR MADELEINE AND OTHER CHILDREN?

Our group is not a discussion group - there are lots of forum's on the internet where you can discuss the rights and wrongs of what happened on 3 May 2007. Our group is an action group, therefore if you feel the same way as we do, and would like to help in however way - large or small - please get in touch to [email protected] - (stating where you saw this message).

During our campaigning throughout mainland Europe and the rest of the World, we also highlight cases of other abducted children in countries such as
Spain, Italy, France, Turkey (to name a few). If by highlighting Madeleine's abduction, we make contact with other people whose children have been abducted, and who do not have resources available to highlight their plight, we hope to provide support and assistance.

As at Monday 23 July 2007, Madeleine has been missing from her family for over 81 days, and if we stop now, sit and do nothing then we achieve NOTHING. Your help may be just what Madeleine, and other children need right now. So if you want to do SOMETHING, then please join us and assist the search.

WHAT WOULD I HAVE TO DO?
Each person who joins up is assigned to a group either working on ideas or countries. The type of things we are doing includes direct emailing to specific businesses and industries to raise awareness and asking for help by either putting up the poster, or seeking support to our fund raising efforts.

The Madeleine McCann campaign has chosen not to specifically endorse any particular groups, however our founding member is in direct contact with the Spokesperson for the campaign.

and Goodluck FF, and to anyone else out there who is trying to do something to help others.

TootyFrooty · 24/07/2007 16:14

SG a nasty piece of work? Good god - you couldn't be more wrong.

G'wan shoo.

SaintGeorge · 24/07/2007 16:14

Why so sherbert? I have remained polite and simply pointed out why flyingfairy got the responses she did. How does that make me a 'nasty piece of work'?

GibbonInARibbon · 24/07/2007 16:15

SG, you were polite and gave good advice - pay no mind.

lol G'wan shoo

HarryShagsAFish · 24/07/2007 16:16

lol at sg being described liek a badn in fmaous five

greensleeves · 24/07/2007 16:16

Are you sure you didn't mean "GS, you sound like a nasty piece of work"?

Seriously - this has been done to death. None of us can realistically do anything to "help" Madeleine McCann, and most of us find the recreational grieving pretty distasteful. So go and ply your trade elsewhere, and be prepared for some negative responses!

MerlinsBeard · 24/07/2007 16:16

sherbert, if the OP had lookedx on this site instead of just recruiting for group members she would realise that a MM thread can turn nasty. however, responses would have been different had the OP started a thread saying that she wants to helpfind ALL missing children because, of course, MM is NOT the only missing child out there.

there are of course organisations that exist to find missing people all over the world, maybe the OP feels they aren't doing enough

SaintGeorge · 24/07/2007 16:17

I'm all puffed up ready for a fight now, get out of my way girls.

Fireflyfairy2 · 24/07/2007 16:17

OMG! How the hell does STG sound like a nasty piece of work??

She answered a question that was asked.

Bloody hell!!!!

BreeVanDerCampLGJ · 24/07/2007 16:23

Take the pointy hat off STG, or you will be accused of unfair advantge if you impale some one.

SaintGeorge · 24/07/2007 16:25

'tis an impressive sight Allie I'll have you know.

If you insist about the hat Bree, but I hope my head doesn't get cold.

HelpingMadeleineMcCann · 24/07/2007 16:25

Do none of you have anything better to do that say nasty things? How is that positive. Why aren't you getting involved in helping to find missing children? It's pretty small minded to say that you can do nothing.

Hello flyingfairy. I'm one of your helpers on the forum

noddyholder · 24/07/2007 16:28

Who are the helpers helping?

SaintGeorge · 24/07/2007 16:29

Are you talking to us?

Did anyone say they are doing nothing? And who said anything nasty?

I am simply here waiting for sherbert to explain her post.

Oh questions, questions but never any answers.

GibbonInARibbon · 24/07/2007 16:29

no one is being nasty Helping...have you name changed for this thread?

ThestralFeet · 24/07/2007 16:31

"An action group"

purleeeese

An action group to help the victims of flooding, or local poverty, I would consider, but no thanks to this.

You say it is not about MM but why form now?

Bandwagon jumping imho.

allgonebellyup · 24/07/2007 16:31

this is funny lol

Fireflyfairy2 · 24/07/2007 16:31

Can I just point out that flyingfairy is not me
