A New Year's Tale from Chenzhou

Hi Folks,
A few days ago I posted about the 100 year storm in China and how profoundly affected Lilah's hometown was. Good news -- relief efforts have arrived from Half the Sky and the children are in a much better situation.

To read a very moving account of the relief effort, follow the link below. It is written by Jenny Bowen's husband Richard (she is the director of Half the Sky)

Xin Nian Kuai Le (Happy New Year)!
