A small victory

I have some good news and some bad but not terrible news. The good news is that we have received our first offer of support. An adventure clothing company in Japan has offered us a 35% discounted rate on the purchase of their clothing. It's not exactly what we are looking for but it's a start. Our sponsorship drive will continue and hopefully there will be some better news on the horizon. The bad news is that it may be harder than I had hoped to get a Chinese visa any longer than a couple of months. There are current restrictions on visas because of the Olympics which are making research a little difficult and confusing but with any luck, after the Olympics we will start to get a clearer picture of the situation.
