There has been an incredible international response to the earthquake in Sichuan, and that is heart-warming given the scale of the disaster. Fortunately, all of my friends from and in Sichuan, including Tang Manzhen, Deng Wenping's widow, are okay. But there are many more who really need our help.Here are a few of the places I am hearing about for donations. Of course, there are many, many more:

Appreciate your notice here about China Earthquake. We all need to care the hometown of those workers who's contributing to the world's economic growth by earning lower wage. I believe all people in this planet should apprise their efforts and show their condolence to the victims.
