Shelterbox Arrival

Shelterbox Distribution in Sichuan

See photos here

The girl in the photo is Wu Jiuli, 22.  She is from a Sichuan village of just about 100 people and she just graduated from Chongqing's Southwest University with a degree in English.  She and Tony Zhang weere Interplast volunteers so I know their work  history.  I recruited her and Tony Zhang to be the volunteer translators for Shelter Box which they served with distinction. 

Jiuli is taking a year off from her guaranteed graduate school track to teach high school students in Wu Shan, a very poor region near the Three Little Gorges in Chongqing.
 
Jiiuli intends to apply for the 2009-2010 Ambassadorial Scholarship.
 
I wish there are more students like her in China.
