Sichuan Earthquake Update

It now sounds like the death toll from the Sichuan earthquake may be as high as 50,000 people. Of course there are also many thousands of survivors who have lost their families, homes, livelihoods or are unable to get food and water. I saw some of the victims on tv and they are not whining or complaining or demanding, just hoping that there will be some help for them. It breaks my heart.

Our wonderful agency, Chinese Children Adoption International ("CCAI"), which is a 503(c) charitable organization, has set up a relief fund. 100% of all donations will go to help orphans in China -- to provide funds for tents, food, medicine, etc. There are babies without food or shelter.

Please think about how much you have right now ... food, clothing, a roof over your head, the love of a family. If you are able to help, you can donate here: http://www.chinesechildren.org/Sichuan_earthquake.aspx. Your contribution will be put to very good use.
