The name, “The Little Swallow” was inspired by the story of “The Happy Prince” by Oscar Wilde. This is the story of a statue that was gilded with leaves of fine gold and adorned with precious stone gems. Yet ironically, he was sad. He had seen all the ugliness and the suffering of many people in his city. There standing alone, he can do nothing but to weep, feeling gloomy and useless, tied to the fact that he was not able to do anything. He was a mere statue. As this bitter realization struck him, all the more he wept, for he could do nothing to uplift the spirits and help his people in their miseries. Then came a little swallow. He was about to take a short rest with him, on his way to Egypt. The Happy Prince begged the little swallow to stay for the meantime and help him help his people. This he did by having the little swallow take his precious stone gems and gave all away to his very poor and needy people.

In the same way, The Little Swallow, is an instrument where your kindness and generosity will be able to touch and help directly the lives of those who are in need.
