Another earthquake, this time a 7.2 magnitude tremor, struck eastern Turkey on Sunday. Local Tzu Chi volunteer Hu Guangzhong has been in close contact with the authorities, and other NGOs, to see how Tzu Chi can provide assistance. Even though there are not many Tzu Chi volunteers in Turkey, they are ready and willing to do what they can.

5.新芽萌愛(三)鄭羽晴Sisters work to help parents

Zheng Yuqing(鄭羽晴) is in her second year, at Xinhua Industrial High School, in Tainan. Her father, who is disabled with polio, has never had a steady job; and her mother relies on the small amount she makes from doing processing work, to get by. To take some pressure off the family, Yuqing took a part-time job, and switched to the cooperative class in school, so she could combine her studies with work. Her younger sister is equally responsible. Both girls are supported by Tzu Chi”s ”New Shoots” scholarship program.

就讀台南新化高工電子科二年級鄭羽晴，父親罹患小兒痲痺，一直找不到固定工作，母親則靠加工賺取微薄收入，為了減輕家裡經濟，羽晴特地選擇建教班，半工半讀，雨晴的妹妹也一樣懂事乖巧，姊妹兩人今年都被志工提報為新芽孝悌獎得主。

To take care of his autistic son, Lin Quansheng from central Taiwan opened a cactus allotment, where he is training his son to be a gardener. The father plans to open the garden up, free of charge, to other autism sufferers, turning it into a training ground for families, to spend quality time with their disabled relatives.
