Redirecting the Thank You gift



As it turned out, our three boxes full of clothes for the Chengdu CWI got caught up in customs in China and never made it through to the CWI. So we are redirecting our gift to Washington, DC's Child and Family Services Agency!

I'm sorry the original idea didn't work, but I'm sure the DC agency will be THRILLED with your donation. Children are children. cmr.

So what is the reason that it didn't get through customs and get delivered to the orphanage?

Carol and Chris said...

There were all sorts of questions to be answered about what were the contents, what they were made of, where they were made, what was the value...on and on. I guess they didn't find our answers acceptable?

Carol, are you on the Chengdu CWI yahoo group? If so, I'm Jacqueline on there and I have a son from the CWI. We brought him home 19 mos ago and he just turned 3 a couple of weeks ago. I'm curious if our guys might be around the same age. Could you get in touch w/ me over there? Thanks!

The above thought is smart and doesn’t require any further addition. It’s perfect thought from my side.

Why do people have to complicate things? You're doing a nice thing and they wouldn't let your stuff pass customs. It's not like they discovered you were hiding drugs for Christ's sake. You were donating.
