1.馬印度村水災Flood relief in Kuang

In Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Tzu Chi volunteers arrived in the small town of Kuang to the north, which was recently flooded. The emergency cash and the love brought by the volunteers helped the flood victims understand that they won”t have to suffer alone.

馬來西亞吉隆坡的慈濟志工，來到北邊的遭逢大水的轟埠小鎮，送上關懷與慰問金，讓災民知道他們並不孤單。



2.賴索托供食Food for Hermana School

The huge donation of rice from the Taiwanese government is finding its way to needy communities all over the world, thanks to the help of volunteers on the ground. In Lesotho, volunteers not only made brunch with the rice for 340 children at the Hermana Primary School, but also decided to give the school 100kg of the grain every month.

台灣農委會捐贈的愛心米，送往全球各地的需要貧戶，感恩各地志工的協助。非洲賴索托慈濟人，帶著米走進賀麻衲小學校園，準備早午餐。第一次志工嘗試在不熟悉的廚房煮白米飯，還必須分批煮，讓340位學童都有食物吃，不過孩子們並不介意，現在志工決定每個月給100公斤的白米，讓學校能夠為孩子多買些水果。



3.三芝義診 Sanzhi District free clinic

Moving to Taiwan, TIMA medical staff regularly provide medical service to seniors who have trouble moving about. We follow northern TIMA members and volunteers on a trip to Sanzhi三芝 District where they made house calls and held a free clinic.

5.微笑站起(四) Every stroke a sign of hope

At the cash aid relief in Minamisanriku Town, in Japan”s quake affected Miyagi Prefecture, volunteers befriended Mr. and Mrs. Suzuki, who were both retired teachers. The March 11th disaster took away both their homes, and some loved ones. Now, though the Suzuki”s are barely getting by, they insisted on giving free calligraphy lessons for young disaster vicitms using Tzu Chi”s consolation cash.

慈濟前往宮城縣南三陸町發放見舞金，志工們認識了來領取的鈴木夫妻，他們是退休老師，3月11號的大災難，不但失去家園還痛失親人，雖然生活拮据，仍免費教導災區孩童書法課，這次領到的見舞金剛好替孩子們購買書法用品。



6.空手逆轉勝(一) Quake-area children kick to success

On September 21, 1999, Taiwan was rocked by the 921 earthquake, with the epicenter in Nantou County. A karate coach couple from Taichung, Huang Taiji and wife Liao Delan decided to move to Nantou, to train disaster-area children. In the last 12 years, they have helped nearly 500 children learn to face up to their problems, by practicing the discipline of karate.
