Helping Baby Yujia

Last night, I watched a programme on TV which was about babies in China born with defects and abandoned by their birth parents. There is this Home (Blue Sky Healing Home), which brings in these children, send them for corrective surgery and thereafter help them get adopted. All of the children who are healed and adopted look so much happier than they were before surgery.
This morning, I read about the heartbreaking story of Yujia and how she had to go through so many surgeries, fought multiple complications and infections, with tubes inserted in various parts of her body, going through so much sufferings while still being just a baby.
I know the medical fees are extremely high and fund raising is definitely going to be a big challenge. However, humanity can prevail even when the odds are stacked against it. All we need is hope, then comes belief and finally success. You may think that your contributions are so insignificant but when you give and people follow your lead and more people join in, you will know the true significance of your gift, by then the target may not seems so unachievable afterall.
Keep the candle of hope burning by giving within your means, every child deserves a happy and healthy childhood. You and I can make it happen for someone who may never be able to repay us, that is the true spirit of giving:
