| Rebuilding Schools for China Quake Victims - OB.org URL: In China, Operation Blessing is helping to rebuild a brand new school and dormitory for quake victims.The school will replace one that collapsed due to the recent earthquake. Three-hundred of the students were killed. The surviving 600 students will live in the dorm and attend the new school. Balanced between trauma and uncertainty, the students try to have normal lives. But they remember what happened on May 12, and they still talk about it. The need is great, because hundreds of poorly-constructed schools collapsed in the earthquake. These new schools will be well-built, and will serve the students for several years until permanent facilities are designed. The priority is giving children a place to learn and a place to resume their lives. website: http://www.ob.org Tags: China Chinese students earthquake victims school new dorms Operation Blessing |
