My Story

I first visited China in 2002. After I graduated from college I spent a year in Suzhou, China. During that year I fell in love with the Chinese culture and language. I saw how China's boom was was helped by all of the migrant workers. When I returned to Seattle I wanted to get involved to find a way to help China's large population still living on the land. Wokai provides that landscape to be able to give back.

  Our family's livestock is doing well -- I bought grass fodder with the loan I took out, and now my cows and sheep are doing very well.

  We still need the help of microloans -- The spring season has come at last. For us animal herders, this means an impending shortage of fodder. My sisters and I at the Chifeng Zhaowuda Women's Sustainable Development Association are about to repay another microloan. We plan to apply for another microloan soon.

  This year's fodder has to also be bought -- There is a drought this year again and there isn't any grass in the grassland. Winter fodder for our herd of cows and sheep have to be bought and stored but the price of mutton is quite good so we got a higher income than last year.
