October and November 2006 China Program Update-AFC Email

Dear Alliance Families,

We wish everyone a happy and health Thanksgiving. Please read on for information about referrals and travel.

Referrals
We received no referrals in October.

On November 2, five Alliance families LID August 23, 2005 received referrals for five beautiful little girls. Four referrals were from Yunnan Province and one referral was from Inner Mongolia. The girls ranged in age from 8 month old to 3 ½ years old at time of referral. The CCAA website reports that they have now referred through LID August 25, 2005. These families waited just over 14 months from LID to referral. All five families are now awaiting their travel approvals. Congratulations!

Travel
Four families who received their referrals at the end of August traveled to Chongqing Province in October to bring their little girls back. The trip went smoothly and everyone is now home adjusting to their new families. We wish them all the best of luck! The seven families who received their referrals from Chongqing Province at the end of September are now in China. So far their trip has gone smoothly. We anxiously await their return!
