Rhianna also mentors students at University of Queensland, executes programs for the Society of Undergraduate Science Students and Faculty of Science, University of Queensland as well as many other such activities. In addition to all this, Rhianna still finds time and manages to help pack and deliver toys to children in need over the Christmas holidays, helped in the disaster relief programs for the recent floods in Queensland (even though she too was flooded out of her own home) as well as provide support for various refugee programs.
Rhianna by the age of 22 will not only have completed her Honours Degree in Bachelor of Biotechnology majoring in Molecular Biotechnology, but also her Ph. D.
To have done all this at her age is a truly remarkable achievement, most people would just be finishing their university years at this point in their lives.
A young lady who's future should be watched!

Commander  (CIOM)


CIOM   

  Mr. Ernest E. Brown BSN/HRM, Min.
(Pottstown, Pennsylvania USA)
Bestowed with the Rank of Commander in the Illustrious Order of Merit for:
Outstanding and selfless service to others.

For many years Mr Ernest E. Brown has been supporting a church village in (the state of Battambang, village of Svaykong,) the Kingdom of Cambodia, from his personal finances, on a regular basis. His support enables the people of this village to purchase food, clothing, and basic toiletries. This money has also empowered the people to build better flood-proof wooden houses as opposed to the shabby bamboo huts they are accustomed to. Some residents have been able to buy materials to build suitable outside bathrooms so they would no longer have to go into the forest and “dig a hole”. Ernest Brown’s regular support has enabled the members of the local church to buy bibles; his finances has also enabled them purchase chairs so the elderly do not have to sit on the dirt floors of their “church”. Ernest Brown’s caring and compassionate heart allows the Cambodian church to purchase sacks of rice food and distribute it to the elderly, widows with children, and other disadvantaged villagers.

Congratulations!

Mr. Ernest E. Brown CIOM.,  
BSN/HRM., Min.

Red Cross of Hutt


The Red Cross of Hutt is a parallel organisation to the International Red Cross and the Red Crescent though independent of.

Headed by Royal Patron and Chair of the Board of Directors, HRH Princess Shirley, the Red Cross of Hutt Charitable Trust seeks to alleviate the plight of the most needy in our society through donations from ordinary people like yourself.
It is also used as the supreme recognition of the charitable works of people from all over the world in all sorts of areas and endeavours that are carried out with the care of others utmost in mind.

Those honoured with being presented with this award have truly served the care for others well.

 

  Mr. Ernest E. Brown CIOM
(Pottstown, Pennsylvania USA)
Bestowed with the Red Cross of Hutt

(Cont. from above)
On April 2, 2010 the company Mr Brown worked for closed some of its operations and as a result Mr Brown lost his full-time employment; non-the-less he continues to send money to the poor church village; he sees that the needs of these impoverished people are much greater that his own. Mr Brown has a true heart of compassion for human beings who are much less fortunate than he. He believes that too many people merely talk about helping a fellow human being, but not enough people do it.

It is dedication such as this that we look for to both recognise and honour.
