Here is the bank account set up to help this poor soul.

Shefali Begum
savings account # 19448
Sonali Bank
College Gate branch
Mohammadpur
Dhaka,
Bangladesh

Sonali Bank (University Branch)
Phone:
508644, 500740

I have no clue as to how to address this or even how to send a donation to an overseas account. Can anyone help with this please?

No one should ever have to sell a body part to save their child. I know things are far worse in Africa, but this woman touched me. We have so much here and are lucky we haven't gotten this desperate, so far. If the Lunatic keeps it up, it may be one of us soon.

My deepest gratitude to any and all that decide to donate for Shefali. Any amount is appreciated.

Thanks to all!

Vicki
