Need & A Man Named Chala

Hello from LJ Urban,

Today we found out about a man named Chala in Thailand who runs an orphanage for children who's parents were killed in Burma.  Chala once fought with the Shan State Army to defend innocent villagers against the Burmese army that was intent on enslaving and killing them. Now he has about 40 children that he is struggling to keep alive.

We heard through some friends who are moving to Thailand to help Chala that he has gone into debt over the last few months taking care of the children and now faces imprisonment if he does not catch up on his bills.   The number is minuscule in comparison to what a great work he is doing, its only $800.   I want to ask for your help today.   We have set up a paypal account where you can help make sure these kids are not left alone again.

Thank you so much!  We may never know how much good we are able to do if we get together and make this happen for these kids.

All money donated will go straight to Chala and his effort to take care of these children, all you need to do is click below to donate.  We at LJ Urban are going to give money ourselves but want to try and go above and beyond what they need to catch up and try and get them in a better place, and we believe in the power of a community to take care of those who are in need.  

Thank you!
