Flood Relief in Massive floods in recent weeks have devastated much of the
|
|
Mekong Delta in Vietnam, and as much help as possible
|
|
Vietnam is needed to help the millions of victims driven out by the natural
|
|
disaster. Thousands of people have died and the main
|
|
food source, rice, has been destroyed. Homes and crops are not expected to
|
|
recover until well after next year. Food,
|
|
water, and shelter are all in extremely short supply. Every bit of help can
|
|
make a huge difference!
|
|
|
|
For information on how to support this important cause, contact Thu Pham
|
|
Arnold at ext. 55125. Donations to
|
|
the flood relief can be made to:
|
|

VCSA Flood Relief
