Xiao Wei.
Dear all,
A Grade 9 student at No.2 Middle School needs our help!
The student’s name is Xiao Wei. He has been ill in hospital since last month.
The doctor says that he has a serious blood disease. An operation may save
him, but it will cost over 300,000 yuan.
Xiao Wei’s parents are both farmers. They do not have enough money for
such an operation. However, it is important for Xiao Wei to have the
operation as soon as possible. Otherwise, he may lose his life.
I am writing to ask for your help. Please donate money. Many hands make
light work. If all of us can give a helping hand, he may get well again soon.
Thanks a lot for your help.
