Charity helps children with heart disease

Eleven children from southwestern China with congenital heart disease are being treated at the Children's Hospital of Fudan University in Shanghai, with operations and all travel expenses covered by a charitable campaign. This charity offering, led by the Shanghai Volunteers Foundation and the hospital, is one of more than 300 being held and planned around the city for this year's "Greatest Love under the Sky" - the monthlong charity program involving all charities in the city.
