A Gift of Friendship
( to foster people-to-people relations between Baton Rouge, Louisiana and China )
On July 20, 2005 our group went to ChengDe, China to donate Hearing Aid to a disabled child in a remote village of China.
The disabled child, Chen Xiao Mei was selected, often from remote villages, as the candidate to receive the hearing aid donation.
Then, the child was sent to a local Audiologist to examine and test the hearing loss, so as to obtain an Audiogram.
With the Audiogram as prescription, a suitable Hearing Aid was presented in person to the disabled child.

Chen Xiao Mie, with the hearing aid, will receive instruction from a professional Speech Pathologist and learn how to talk.
Eventually she will graduate from the disabled children school and join a regular public school.
The Donar has changed the future of Chen Xiao Mei and the fate of her whole life.
