Wan Chiang's fund raising page for China
Wan Chiang is raising money for The British Red Cross Society
In memory of people who died and affected by the earthquake
Story
- Another 23,150 people remain missing in the quake zone, 360,058 people injured (as of 26 May)
- The Chinese authorities fear that the final death toll will exceed 80,000.
- Almost 5 million people have been left homeless. Equivalent to roughly 8% of the population in the UK.
- More than 45.61 million people were affected in the deadly quake. Equivalent to roughly 75% of the population in the UK.
- In several areas a whole generation of children has been lost, as many schools collapsed.
As a Chinese, I want and need to do something for those in Sichuan. I am organising a £10 per person donation campaign. You are welcome to donate even more.
£10 is worth: 3 pints of beer? 1.5 burgers at the pub? 4 cups of coffee?
£10 for emergency aid for those in need, and to rebuild the desolate communities, has a worth which transcends comparison.
“Better to light one small candle, than to curse the darkness.”

I have called the Red Cross to confirm that all proceeds from this site will go towards the China Earthquake Appeal.
