A Heartwarming Thank You from an LRS Child

The following is a personal letter from Little Na, a child who recovered from congenital heart disease after receiving help from Little Red Scarf.

Dear Little Red Scarf aunts and uncles:

Hello!

When I was sick, you made me feel warm; you gave me a new heart; you gave me confidence; and you made my dream come true. I am very thankful for all your help. While I was overwhelmed by illness and on the verge of losing my health, your warm words encouraged me and helped me find confidence to face my disease with bravery. After my surgery, you sent me a lot of nutritious supplements; it made me feel that you really care about me, and I am very happy. While I was in the hospital, you sent me text messages showing your concerns about my health, for which I am really deeply grateful. When I was discharged from the hospital, you sent me a bag that I wanted for a long time, and also pens, notebooks, and a pretty pencil case.

Whenever I see these things, I feel determined to study hard, work hard, grow up strong, and honor my community and country. I will also promote Little Red Scarf and help spread the Little Red Scarf spirit. Finally, allow me to scream out: thank you, aunts and uncles from Little Red Scarf!

A child rescued by you, 
Little Na
Happy New Year! Best Wishes.

We're so excited to finally share the photos of our Thanksgiving Charity Fundraiser, during which our interns raised over $1200 for Transparent Fish Fund causes. Thanks so much to Jacqueline Hoang, who took all of these beautiful photos. See the full album here, and don't forget to like our Facebook page after browsing the photos- your like means $1 more goes to funding congenital heart disease surgeries for impoverished children!

Our Little Red Scarf intern, Seanan Fong, who previously blogged about his experience visiting Gansu and even presented a poster at a recent Stanford conference, has now written an article for the Stanford Journal of Public Health. Read Seanan's story on pages 24-25 of this month's journal! We hope his moving story will be a great way to educate people on Congenital Heart Disease. 

The story couldn't have come at a better time. In honor of Congenital Heart Defect Awareness week, Transparent Fish Fund is donating a dollar for every new "like" on their Facebook page to the cause! If you haven't become a fan of the page yet, visit now, and help us spread the word!
