Julian Carr has certainly had a life story worth telling. During 2024, he spoke at length to Bill Dowling when he outlined how life has evolved for him since 1966. It was with admiration for Julian's achievements (and with permission from Julian) that Bill provided this outline below of where Julian has been since his school days. As an alternative to reading his story below, the document can also be read via this link. Some photos of Julian's African activities appear below the story; an explanation of what each photo is about can be found in this document. Both the documents can also be downloaded to a separate device for possibly better viewing by first clicking the small 'square-and-arrow' icon at the top right of each section.
Below is the story of Julian's work in Africa. There are some recent monthly reports of activities as examples of what is being done.
A list of needed items shows the surprisingly low cost for projects that can be completed and which "Make a Real Difference". All of that information and much more can also be found on the organization's newly-designed website (Fair World International – FWI).
After Bill had heard so much of Julian's work, he thought he would contact a few old St. Pat's mates to see if they might be inclined to help out with the work of FWI. The result has been that a useful amount of money (over $15,000) has been sent to Julian via the Australian bank account of FWI. Others interested in doing something similar, after reading about FWI, could get in touch with Bill (billydowling11@gmail.com).
An outline of some of the recent activities undertaken by Fair World International can be seen by clicking on this link (earlier monthly updates can be read by selecting the "Latest Achievements" heading on that FWI webpage). It is amazing what can be done by Jules and his group with a seemingly small amount of money. Click this link for examples.
