| Update: China Earthquake Relief
Help Us Help The Needy In China
As most of you heard on the news, several days ago a
devastating earthquake hit the Southwest part of China, and the most
affected area is Sichuan province.
According to the latest news, there
are more than 34,000 confirmed deaths, and the number is expected to
rise to almost 50,000. More than 400,000 houses were either flattened or
sustained heavy damage, and almost 5 million people are homeless.
Our liaison to the China Center of
Adoption Affairs (CCAA) told us that several orphanages were damaged.
We are asking for your help.
There are two ways you can help:
1. Send your check to
“Journeys of the Heart Love the Children Fund”, PO Box 39, Hillsboro,
Oregon 97123. Indicate on your check "earthquake relief".
2. Select a donation amount
below, and use secure Google Checkout to donate with your
credit card. Please hit the 'down' arrow to see various
amounts.
Every penny of every donation
will be sent to the CCAA designated for earthquake relief. Not one
cent donated will be used for processing or administrative fees.
Although food, clothes, blankets, etc are definitely needed, it is very
difficult to send such items in China (expensive and customs fees need
to be paid), so we are asking anyone who wishes to do so, to donate
money only.
All 501 (c)(3) Donations are tax-deductible, and you will receive a receipt. |
