ONE OF THAO'S FAVORITE SAYINGS

There is a saying in Vietnamese that is one of Thao's favorites-- the good leaves will cover the torn leaves and the torn leaves will cover the shredded leaves. She explains that if you are lucky enough to be in a better situation than others, when you help them it sends the message that they are equally capable of helping still others less fortunate than they are.

THANK YOU VIRTUE FOUNDATION

http://www.virtuefoundation.org/cms/front_content.php?idart=351

The Virtue Foundation was kind enough to donate books and school supplies to Thao's library. I've just been informed that a shipment arrived over the weekend. Pictures to follow.

Virtue Foundation is a public charitable and nongovernmental organization with special consultative status to the United Nations. The Foundation's mission is to increase awareness of prevalent global issues, to inspire people to action, and to render humanitarian assistance through healthcare, education, and empowerment initiatives. Comprised primarily of volunteers, Virtue Foundation is guided by the principle that true global change must begin within each of us—one person at a time, one act at a time.
