A Coat Note
Last winter in Loudi was absolutely brutal … even though it’s at roughly the same latitude as Florida, it gets quite cold there. And they don’t insulate buildings or have central heating in southern China, so I always had to wear my winter jacket throughout my classes and bundle up heavily at home.
That’s why I’m happy to announce that all thirty three of the children in the Loudi foster care program, SWI (orphanage), and rural physical therapy program will be receiving new winter coats this year! It’s the first of many ways that the money donated from my calendar and marathon are being used … and at $10/jacket, it’s money well spent!
Many thanks to those of you who so generously donated to keep these kids nice and toasty. You’re awesome!
