Medecins sans frontieres (MSF, or doctors without borders) are doorknocking in Abbotsford at the moment. They knocked on ours today and the bloke said only 2 in 50 people whose doors had been knocked had heard of them. They’re good people, very good — they pulled me out of Lhasa once in a four wheel drive — and their international head honcho is an Australian, Rowan Gillies (pictured). If you’re looking for a charity to add to your philanthropic portfolio, they’re a good bet.
