Leslie recently moved from San Francisco to Beijing to serve as Wokai's Marketing Director.
I just received a copy of the Social Venture Group's latest newsletter, which features Wokai on its front page! Social Venture Group "advises foundations, corporations, and individuals in making informed giving decisions for maximum social impact in China." I met SVG's Managing Director, Grace Chiang, last year in Shanghai, and she has assembled a great team to spotlight China's most effective non-profit organizations.
Here it is:

It features fascinating stories about:
- Sichuan's progress in recovering from the May 12 earthquake
- A shelter for Shanghai's homeless trash collectors
- A school for autistic children
- A day in the life of blind orphans in Beijing
I hope you find it as interesting as I did. The SVG team has also recently started blogging in both English and Chinese at http://chinaphilanthropy.typepad.com/
