Clean drinking water is one of the many things Americans take for granted. We often forget that much of the rest of the world considers clean water a luxury.
A Child’s Right is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to providing children all over the world with clean water. Their latest project took them to 8 different orphanages in China. And they have pictures. Lots and lots of pictures.

(copy and paste the website into your browser to view the pictures)
There are 184 pictures in all, just keep clicking the little plus sign at the bottom right.
There are pictures of cities and countryside and (of course) the water systems, but best of all are the pictures taken in the orphanages. If you’ve never seen pictures of the inside of an orphanage in China, here is your chance.
The pictures show very different conditions in the various orphanages. I thought it was very interesting and offers a rare opportunity to view the inside of an orphanage and the children.

I went to the website and looked at the pictures. It made me feel like I was back in China! I've actually worked on water projects in China, just not in cities, out in the rural areas. Even the water that came to my "house" we were not suppose to even use to brush our teeth! I think sometimes we don't realize as Americans how good/easy we have it. Looking forward to seeing you all!
