refugee appeal
Thank you, Hseng! It is so important to get the needs of refugees heard. You are truly a voice for those who cannot speak. You could also consider posting the appeal in the ResourceExChange section of PulseWire, (http://beta.pulsewire.net/exchange) where members swap appeals and offers for help.

Thank you for your powerful story
Hseng,
I just read your powerful story in our emagazine and sit here with so many emotions running through my body. I think I want to weep mostly.
Thank you for sharing your story. I keep wondering if I could even fathom what it would be like if the U.S. Government ever openly attacked its own citizens. I don't think I can, yet my heart shatters nonetheless.
The courage and indomitable spirit of the women of Burma cut through me. What can I do? How can I help? I've signed every petition that find its way to me. What else?
I will keep a close watch on the conversations happening in the Burma Cafe, looking for a tiny opening that I can squeeze through to help mkae the situation different. Better. Humane.
With love,
Jennifer
