This community gives, then gives more The blood bath in the Balkans may not touch lives in the Wood River Valley, but the spectacle of hundreds of thousands of hungry, suffering, cheerless Kosovo refugees surely has touched hearts. What started out as a trickle of generosity now seems to be developing into steady flow. Clothes are being collected at several places in the valley. And Wood River Valley banks have joined in collecting donations to the Campaign of Cultural Consciousness. And while a few politicians try to capitalize on the Balkans war for their own careers, the anonymous and faceless donors behind the drive for funds and clothing never ask for, nor expect, credit or praise.

The Wood River Valley's charity is merely a microcosm of a larger effort nationwide that sets the United States apart from all others when human need is desperate. Express Publishing Inc.
