5 Water purifiers installed in Longfu Township, Du,an, Hechi, Guangxi, China







Longfu Primary Schools Receive 5 Water Purifiers

Thanks to donors who have helped these schools, Blessing Hands was able to give five water purifiers. The pictures speak for themselves. We will be installing 7 more purifiers this summer.  A water purifier team from East Oldham Middle School will be going with us this summer to help the schools have clean water.

Earthquake

We recommend 博爱路 Agape Way as a good charity to donate to for earthquake relief.

We were so saddened to hear of the earthquake in China. We want to suggest that you give to Agape Way for earthquake relief. They have many partners in the earthquake area and were able to help many people during the last quake. Agape Way has pledged to work with partners in China to join the earthquake relief efforts.  One of their partners has already gotten into the area after several hours of traffic jams on the road. 
After the Wenchuan (8.0-magnitude) earthquake five years ago, Agape Way participated in the reconstruction efforts building 38 houses and 10 churches thanks to the faithful prayers and generous contributions from people like you.
"Agape Way was initiated by Dr. Wanbing Frank Li and his wife Dr. Aijun Anna Li in 1999 and was registered in 2001 as a non-denominational, nonprofit organization with a 501(C)3 status with the USA IRS." They can give you a US tax deduction and have experience in the area of the earthquake. I have already sent them a check myself. 
You can donate on their website at this link.
