88 Disaster Relief Fund Raising

Here in Los Angeles, our Hakka Taiwanese show strong supports to those victims in 88 Disaster.
We echoed Taiwan Center's calling...and on the first press conference, we have donated the first batch of collected money $2400 and also we got Samuel Lee's help to have the following film taken:


Thanks to Mrs. Huang Wen Wentze and Mr. Lai Mu-Lien - They not only donated money from their saving, also encouraged their family and friends to help out.  With this film, so many Hakka and non-Hakka friends saw it on the facebook and echoed...They are very inspiring...Thank you...Salute to these two seniors Hakka Taiwanese. 
Many of our Hakka friends and tea colleagues donated their money via different channels...Thank you.

The following Hakka friends and our fellow Amercian tea colleagues did hand their money or mailed the checks to Josephine.  We will make sure Taiwan Center to send the tax dedubtible receipt directly to every one.  Again, thanks for your kindness and efforts.
