In one of my recent posts, I encouraged others to donate, it actually worked, I know of at least 3 people that donated, I doubt I was the cause, as they had it within them to help. I’m sure many others donated, but didn’t want to say anything.<\/p>\n

CNN reports that<\/a>: “The government estimated death toll rose Thursday to around 20,000 but could eventually top 50,000, Xinhua reported.” as of Thursday, so I fear that things will get worse.<\/p>\n

I’ve donated again, this time, my donation was more sizable than the first time around.<\/p>\n

You know what to do, consider not going out to that nice dinner, and donate that money to the Red Cross<\/strong><\/a>, it would mean a lot to me if you donated, if you don’t have money to spare, blog it, tweet it, Facebook it, spread the word, that means just as much.<\/p>\n

I’m Chinese, and have been to China a few times, here’s some of my favorite pictures compiled over a few trips, I hope they inspire…

Did these photos brighten your day? Consider donating to the Red Cross China Effort<\/a>, there a lot of suffering, even $20 significantly support this effort.<\/p>\n

What’s the impact of these photos? See the comments below, one in particular is really striking<\/a>:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“your photos are beautiful. you’ve made me stop thinking ‘I should’ and get on and donate”<\/center><\/h2>\n
