HEART TO HEARThttp://www.heart2heartshanghai.net/index.cfm Heart to Heart is a Shanghai based charity which provides corrective surgery for Chinese children from all over China with congenital heart defects (CHD) whose parents are unable to afford the surgery. Heart to Heart is a 100% volunteer organization. It has no operating budget; 100% of donations are spent for surgeries. Sponsors are given documentation on where their donations were spent and can also visit the children while the children are in the hospital for their surgery. RMB 30,000 will fund the lifesaving heart operation of one child. Decided that we would host one (possibly two) fundraising events before and after the summer, specifically to raise money for this charity, with a target of RMB 30,000 to pay for a lifesaving heart operation for one child. |
