Help build a house.

Heather, a fellow adoptive parent of 2 kiddo's from Vietnam has been doing these amazing fundraisers to help the wonderful people of Vietnam. Her latest endeavor is to raise enough money to build a house for a needy family. You cannot fully imagine the conditions we saw when in country adopting our beautiful children. On our 2 hour bus ride to the orphanage we saw family after family living in shacks with dirt floors, no windows or doors. In my wildest imagination I cannot imagine living in these conditions much less my children. It breaks my heart.
There are 2 short video clips you must see in order to appreciate the living conditions of these families. I dare you to watch them and not want to help!!

Heather is not just asking for donations with no reward. There is a prize! You could win a brand new stroller. A double stroller. You say you don't need a stroller? You could give the very best baby shower gift in the world, donate it to charity or even sell it on Craig's List. Whatever you like. Really. For a mere $10 donation you're in the drawing for this beautiful, brand new stroller. So please drop by, meet Heather and her beautiful kids and do something to help a family on the other side of the world have a better life.
Thank you! ;)

Thank you so much for your donation and your wonderful comment;You are wonderful. Only people like you can understand the conditions we saw in Vietnam and how important it is to try and make a difference. Economy is tough and it is slow going but I still hope to reach my goal. Please feel free to pass it on to anyone you think would be interested in the cause or the stroller.

I gave you an extra entry for your blog post. Wish you luck in winning:)
