Evergreen Secondary School

Envelopes of Love entered Evergreen Secondary School!

In conjunction with the International Friendship Week, Envelope of Love had been invited to join us for the week. All the students from Evergreen Sec were encouraged to do a card for the affected kids in Sichuan.

Woah.. Our non-chinese friends are helping

Full concentration.. More cards in the process

1 big heart, made by 5 little rainbow

A pot of gold after the rainbow

One of those nicely decorated cards.

Listen to what our friends have to say:

"I felt this activity was very interesting and meaningful. I can not only help those people in Sichuan by donating some money but also make cards to brighten up their days. Although I have to think ,design and draw which sometimes could take some time especially when it’s during competition period, but I still think that those time spent on doing those cards paid off as our cards will make the children’s day a better one. I was watching the news when they reported about the Sichuan earthquake and was thinking of how to help the people there. A 14 years old teenager can’t do much, I can’t go to Sichuan to help them rebuild their houses nor become first aider to help in saving lives. But “Envelopes of Love” this project gave me this chance to help them just by making cards for them."

by our chinese friend.

"I felt that the envelopes of love programme was a memorable and meaningful thing to do. During the day, me and all my classmates took the school time to make cards for the victims in the Sichuan earthquake in hope that it would encourage them to live life to the fullest and provide moral support after what the earthquake had done to their lives. During the collection of the cards that all the students made, I was surprised to see the creativity of how the students tried to make them. Although there were a number of cards that were not approved, I felt that the effort that we had put in into them was a lot. I strongly hope that it would have a great impact on the victims of the earthquake in Sichuan." by our malay friend.

512 汶川大地震一周年

我叫曹鑫，四川籍学生，现在北京师范大学05级物理学系学习。去年的四川特大地震灾难发生以后，我感到很震惊。上大学以前，我在四川这个天府之国生活的18年里，呼吸着清新怡人的空气，沐浴在沁人心脾的和风沐雨里，祖国西南这一方圣洁的土地养育着我们一代又一代巴蜀子弟。地震——这一可怕而又陌生的自然灾难离我们淳朴善良的四川人民是那么的遥远，可怎么也令人想象不到是，这样的不幸却发生在了我最深爱的土地上！我们学校的四川学生很多，地震发生的那天下午，大家听到消息后，时间仿佛瞬间凝固了一样，每一个人都不敢去承认这是事实，寄希望于这是一场恶梦而已。可大家都明白这并不是一场恶梦，当梦醒来，我们每一位在京求学的学子做的第一件事就是马上拨打家里的电话，向家里问平安。可当时灾区通讯中断，电力中断，家人的命运一切都成了未知数。就这样，大家熬过了几天以后，灾区的通讯渐渐恢复了，有的同学跟家里人联系上了，有些同学却……想到这里，手就止不住地颤抖。这一场灾难，让多少父老失去了亲人，又有多少美满的家庭被活生生地埋葬在废墟里。

灾难过后，在党和政府的领导下，全国人民都积极地伸出援手，投入到抗震救灾中来，很多素不相识的人放下工作，放下家庭，来到四川帮助我的乡亲们，甚至是远在国外的关心中国的外国友人，也向灾区施以援手。这让我们四川的乡亲们在灾后第一次看到了希望，看到了光明！作为一名四川人，我由衷地感谢每一个帮助过四川灾民的人！

灾难过去了1 年了，灾区的重建工作也陆续开展了起来，这让我们每一个四川人都看到了未来的四川是有希望的四川。但是，不容忽视的是，灾害所带来的巨大的阴影还远没有在灾区人民的心里抹除。这项工作是比地震后重建工作更为长远甚至更为重要的工作，希望每一个关心灾区的好心人，都不要忘记这次巨大而又可怕的灾难。

最后，想对四川的孩子们说几句祝福鼓励的话语：

Never give up,Never lose hope. Always have faith,It allows you to cope.Trying times will pass,As they always do.Just have patience,Your dreams will come true.So put on a smile,You'll live through your pain.Know it will pass,And strength you will gain

曹鑫哥哥也是四川孩子，现在在北京读书，非常挂念身在家乡地震灾区的弟弟妹妹们，你们一定要加油！灾难都过去了，相信明天会是美好的！我们一起努力加油，重建我们美好的家园！记得要天天对自己微笑哦：）

2009年4月28日，《捎封爱》计划成员已把第三批卡片转交给新加坡邮政，通过他们的赞助，把卡片邮寄到四川。这些卡片预计会在五月下旬抵达四川。我们由衷地感谢参与《捎封爱》计划第三阶段的学校和人士。

The wonderful cards made by each and everyone of us would definitely bring some joy to the young survivors of the 512 Sichuan Earthquake. As we continue to show our concern for these students, let's do our best by sending in more letters and cards of encouragement to them.

这些精心制作的卡片相信将能为512四川灾区的孩童带来一些欢乐。在我们继续关注这些学生们的同时，请大家踊跃参与《捎封爱》计划接下来的活动，继续制作卡片或信件。

For the 4th and last batch of card to Sichuan in end July, we would be sending in cards to encourage the teachers instead of the students! For more information, kindly contact us at : envelopes_logistic@hotmail.com

Thank You Hellenic Red Cross!

It is great to know that we are not alone in our efforts. We have received a shipment of over 40 cards from the youths from the Hellenic Red Cross. The youths from Volunteer Teenage Youth School of Hellenic Red Cross Regional Department of Volunteer Samaritans and Rescuers of Chania, have come together and contributed to our cause by making support cards.

These youth are trained in First aid techniques and basic rescue practices for times of emergencies. In addition, they participate in mission related community activities such as cleaning up streets, planting trees and organizing food drives. These young people also serve as mentors to peers and younger youth on substance environmental awareness, violence prevention and other major youth issues.

The message of support knows no boundaries as they have expressed their feelings and put to paper their words of encouragement and support. These youths have greatly enjoyed themselves in making these cards and it is good to know that their efforts will have a direct positive impact on the recipients of these cards in Sichuan!

They have done a Great Job!

We would like to thank the efforts of Mary Stylidi and the youths who have participated in Project Envelopes Of Love!

南洋理工大学 中文系

2009年3月16日，南大中文系展开了为期三天的书展，地点就举行于南洋理工大学华裔馆。同时间，南大中文系系学会也相应了我们的号召，卖书之于也呼吁同学老师们一起制作卡片。

The Chinese Division (DoC) of Nanyang Technology University held a Book fair on 16th March 2009 and in which lasted for 3 days. At the same time, NTU's DoC Society Club decided to respond to our appeal and invited teachers and students to participate in the making of the cards。

当我们收到南大中文系所收集的卡片时，我们好惊讶！卡片做的精致，内容非常贴心！我们在此非常感谢南大中文系与系学会的鼎力支持，尤其是所有参与制作卡片的教师同学们，特别是系学会主席子佳以及三年级的海彬同学！

One can never guess our expressions upon receiving the cards! They are really well done and the wordings are all exceptionally meaningful! We would like to express our gratitude to everyone from NTU Chinese Division, with special thanks to the ZiJia, Chairperson of DoC Society Club and Hai Bin, a Year 3 student from the Chinese Division!
