China is experiencing some of the worst winter weather it’s seen in nearly 50 years. Electricity and clean water are in short supply and transportation has all but ceased. Reports are rolling in from several of the Social Welfare Institutions (SWI’s) that conditions are getting worse and they are having a hard time keeping the children clean, fed, and warm.

I’ve written about Half the Sky before. They are a wonderful organization that work to bring training, supplies and medical care to their sponsored SWI’s all over China, and they are doing what they can to send aid in the form of food, clothing, heaters, and money to the areas that are hardest hit.

They have set up The Little Mouse Emergency Fund to quickly offer aid to the SWI’s that are in desperate need of assistance. If you can help, click the mouse below. Half the Sky has volunteers on the ground in China to get help to the areas that need it most.

The weather outside is frightful!

The Zen of Adoption is started as a way to share our adoption journey with family and friends. Our wait is long and we realized that life goes on and can't be segmented, as surely as our child will become a member of our family, this journey is really just a part of our family's ongoing adventure! So this blog has become more than just an adoption account, it is about our family, past, present, and future! Enjoy, Eileen
