HOW TO HELP


If you would like to contribute to the relief efforts in China, here are some ways to do so:

GREAT WALL CHINA ADOPTION has started a relief fund for the orphanages in the Sichuan and Chongqing provinces.  These orphanages were directly affected by the earthquake (no word on how they have been affected or the welfare of the kids, just that the orphanages have been impacted).  Here is the link to the relief fund information:

THE RED CROSS CHINA is currently accepting donations for the earthquake relief fund.  Here is the link: 


Red Cross Society of China website: www.redcross.org.cn 


LOVE WITHOUT BOUNDARIES is also starting a relief fund.  Here's the link:

https://www.lovewithoutboundaries.com/donate.cfm?category=147&child_id=0

Alternatively, go to the LWB website and you'll be directed to the link for earthquake relief:  www.lovewithoutboundaries.com

An update from HALF THE SKY, which has three orphanages in the region is that the children in those three orphanages were evacuated but are fine and that the buildings did not suffer great damage.  


Our hearts go out to those in China who are suffering tonight...

Fantastic. You are too good to have done the leg work on this for all of us. I know I felt a twisting knot in my stomach when I first heard the news of the earthquake. Timely and important post. Thanks!
