We all know there are people less fortunate than us, even in Australia there are people without homes and food. And most of us think it is admirable to help those people, especially at Christmas time – have you ever thought serving Christmas lunch at a shelter is an honourable and worthy way to spend Christmas Day, for instance?

We’ve just found a way you can help Australia’s homeless in about two minutes without spending a cent – Bayer will donate $1 in your name if you simply create a butterfly. So even if your budget is tight, you can help from the comfort of your own home or library.

We wish a Merry Christmas to all Australians, rich or poor, mansion or park bench.
