A short update for those of you who made donations for the group of women in the Philippines that I posted about on Blog Action Day…

Yesterday was the day that the women gathered and the gifts were distributed. I am so grateful to those of you who generously donated money to help out people who really need it. I know some of you reached beyond personal or religious beliefs in order to do so and I think that is a true example of what it means to be a global citizen and to care for your fellow humans. These twelve families were blessed by your generosity and touched that people around the world would care about their needs. Thank you for taking action! You are amazing!

Here is a picture of the whole group of them in the home of my friend Jessica and her husband as they celebrated together. Enjoy the faces of those you have helped!
