MIDLAND, Texas -- China Aid Association is pleased to announce Professor Wu Yanan as the winner of the Lin Zhao Freedom Award 2024 from a group of four qualified nominations for her outspoken condemnation of the Chinese Communist Party's suppression of student protests.

These protests called for an end to strict lockdown measures, which Wu described as oppressive. In her online posts, she urged the university to protect its students from political retaliation, emphasizing the need for the institution to uphold basic human rights.
Wu expressed her frustration with the university's actions, asking, "Isn't it the school's duty to protect the students?! … Who gives you the right to silence our voices of truth?!"

We want to make you aware of an upcoming vote on a two-part referendum question for the Lake Cunningham Fire District. This vote will be held on Tuesday November 19th (next week) from 7 am to 7 pm at the Lake Cunningham Fire District Headquarters (2802 N McElhaney Rd, Greer, SC 29651). You can check here to figure out if you are in this fire district and therefore able to vote.
GPC participated in a cordial 1.5 hr. conversation with Fire Chief Brown and here are the details we have gathered about this vote. The LCFD board voted unanimously to move forward with the two part referendum that requests approval to take out a $9 million bond to build and furnish 2 new fire stations. They are also requesting permission to raise the millage rate as needed each year not to exceed 75 millage points. Voting yes would mean the Lake Cunningham Fire Commission would not require additional approval from citizens to enact such tax increases.
Pisgah Valley Retirement Community Successfully Handles Unprecedented Disruption of Hurricane Helene
- Details
- By Press Release

It was unprecedented, unexpected, and unrelenting. However, the outstanding team handled it with strength, collaboration, and compassionate care with support from corporate leadership.
When Hurricane Helene ravaged the western part of North Carolina one month ago, no one expected or prepared for the devastation that ensued. The area is widely beloved because of its reputation as a ‘climate haven,’ safe from extreme weather events. So, while Pisgah Valley retirement community in Candler, North Carolina, carefully prepares for unforeseen emergencies, Hurricane Helene was unparalleled. It was impossible to anticipate the worst disaster in western North Carolina history in a century. The impact of the hurricane was out of everyone’s control, but management of Pisgah Valley successfully got a handle on the situation to protect its residents.
