Review for Fistula Foundation, San Jose, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

In the spring of 2008, I went to Ethiopia with my friend who adopted a little girl. Coincidentally I saw "A Walk to Beautiful" shortly before the trip. This movie touched my heart. When we returned from the trip, I decided that I would support the Fistula Foundation going forward as a way to contribute in a small way to the people of Ethiopia.
If you haven't seen "A Walk to Beautiful", you can view it here: http://video.pbs.org/video/980049841/
There is a 4 minute video "A Second Chance" about the movie and the Fistula issue here (excuse the ad at the beginning) : http://www.veoh.com/watch/v11794193RY8z9Tqm

I have found the staff of the organization to be very responsive by email and phone whenever I've had questions or asked for a special note to be included with my donation tribute card. There are various ways to contribute and be involved. Check it out!

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

the movie "A Walk to Beautiful" that I viewed on PBS.
