As we all know, a massively destructive 7.8 magnitude earthquake hit China's south-western Sichuan province at 14:28, May 12th, 2008. The death is estimated to
exceed 50000 and more than 200000 are injured. Millions of people are homeless,
and in need of clean water, food and shelters. Victims need our help to rebuild their
home. Let's try our best to give them a hand.
GTCFA (Georgia Tech Chinese Friendship Association) is now calling for donations:
Time: 12pm-2pm, May 19th-24th
Place: Student Center at Georgia Tech.
Please write on your check:

The donations will be transferred directly to charity organizations in China
through Chinese Consulate General in Houston.
All donations are tax deductible.
Please feel free to forward this information to your friends!
Also, GTCFA is calling for volunteers. Please contact gtcfa@yahoo. com with your
