Help Half the Sky children carry Olympic torch
Sat Sep 29, 2007 8:30 pm (PST)
Hello again-
Our volunteers in Wuhan had a great idea. It may be possible for some of our Half the Sky children to carry the Olympic torch next year. I've entered a contest sponsored by the China Daily Newspaper and, if I can get enough votes from netizens all over the world, I may be able to have that honor. If it happens, I will run with 8 children from 8 orphanages in China. Believe me, I am no runner. But I would dearly love to give the children a place at the party.Please take a moment and vote for me right now:

We need a LOT of votes. Please pass this on to your friends and family.
Thanks and love,
Jenny
