Walter Mikac- Letters of Love

July 5, 2018 karena

Walter Mikac has taken a great personal tragedy and used it to fuel his compassion for others who are suffering.

The Allanah and Madeline Foundation was founded by him to bring something good out of the loss of their lives and his wife’s at Port Arthur. This book contains 50 letters of love by prominent Australians, letters about love of country, or children, or their work , or even to their future selves. They are all different, touching and some even forceful.

Profits go towards the foundation. Walter’s letter is to his parents.
