A $5,000 act of kindness grew into 50,000 trees. 🌱⁣ ⁣ 27 years ago, an American teacher helped a Chinese woman turn a desert into a forest.⁣ ⁣ What grew alongside the trees was an extraordinary friendship between two people from opposite sides of the world.⁣ ⁣ Their story serves to remind us that where there are borders, there are people to build bridges too. ⁣ ⁣ #china #usa #desertification #plantingtrees #chinausa⁣
