TOP 100 REVIEWER
Ah, Ronni Kahn, what a woman!!
She went from living a very sheltered life in South Africa, to living on a Kibbutz in Israel and then immigrating to Australia. Along the way she had a couple of lovely sons, several significant relationships and some amazing businesses. She was well and truly an entrepreneur at a time when that wasn't really a thing, and an all-round amazing person, clearly.
I can't believe the work ethic and energy that this lady must have. She is so right; of COURSE food waste is terrible and any sane person would recognise that putting food in the bin just because it is surplus to requirements whilst others are going hungry is crazy! Unlike most of the rest of us, she decided to do something about it.
Fascinating reading how OzHarvest came to be and I love that Ronni doesn't shy away from admitting that she is more of a "fly by the seat of her pants" kind of person than someone with a careful plan and a suitcase full of money.
I also love that she has such a big heart and she encourages so many others to follow a path of kindness and sharing. I thoroughly enjoyed reading about her various mentors and others who are very important to her; Major Harmer, I take my hat off to you!
All in all, this is an inspiring read and I would highly recommend it to anyone.
