Great news everyone! Yifeng has heat! AND formula!!! The staff at Love without Boundaries are just amazing. Their staff in China are truly angels. They not only agreed to work over the Chinese New Year holiday (this is the ONE big holiday in China where families spend a week together and EVERYTHING closes down!) but they convinced suppliers and shopkeepers to open up their businesses to provide them with the heaters and additional formula for the Orphanage! As of today, LWB has raised almost $3300 from donations for Yifeng, which means they were able to purchase SIX heaters, not three...AND they were able to provide formula provisions that will give Yifeng a 'cushion' so that no child will go without!
And while the snow and ice seems to have melted, the cold is still at the 100 year low, so these heaters and the extra food is extremely appreciated.
This is better than any baby shower, Christmas or Birthday gift! I would personally like to thank the eighteen friends, relatives and local FCC families who gave to this wonderful charity to help the children at Yifeng...to help our Paisley.
THANK YOU

YEAH FOR PAISLEY!! YEAH FOR HEAT! YEAH FOR FORMULA! YEAH FOR LWB :)
Whoooo-hooooo-hope Paisley gets some good eats! Her mommy does a great job of helping raise money!
It is great when you see that the money really does get through ok... let's hope they don't go through this kind of weather again for a while and you will have Paisley home sooner rather then later... like you said... now that they have their clean desks...
That is wonderful news!
What a wonderful mission. Thank you for taking care of "our children" in these orphanages.
