    It was very touching to see the little children in their everyday lives. The photograghs were moving and the situation heartbreaking. I agree that ongoing stories would really wake up some people to help as long as they can be educated. They really need to see what is going on. Thank you for the story and the pictures. It's good to know theses children have a voice.

    I am moved by Justin Mott's piece on the Hanoi Orphanage and am interested in donating money. I would like to get others to donate as well and believe that knowing where the money would be going would encourage that. I would love to see Justin team with Newsweek on an on-going basis to educate Americans on the situation with these kids. I believe that I as well as others, would like to see how the money would be spent to make sure it does not go to administrative waste or government officials. Would Newsweek be willing to do a piece to educate us on how the money would be spent?
