It could be perhaps that Miltiades made the effort to help these people and not Sotos.
As a result of my " bragging " the home already has 500 euros and a further 500 or so pledged thus far.
So , the moral of the story is that I have helped to raise a little money for these misfortunate Cypriots .
I shall visit the Home on my next visit and I will put it to them and see if they feel as you do !!!
What you and others with the same mentality ought to realize is that if by " bragging " as you say I help to raise funds then be it.
