Because Thimbleberry Press has a special interest in children from China we have made a contribution to relief efforts following the recent, devastating earthquake. We have supplied information below for anyone interested in making a contribution to the children effected.
Donations can be made directly through the "Families with Children From China" website: www.fccny.org. (Please indicate 'Earthquake Relief' as the Donation Project.) Contributions by check can also be mailed to: FCC Orphanage Assistance, PO Box 237065 Ansonia Station, New York, NY 10023.
