"Amity IS a big family.
We are many faces from many places who find a home away from home together.
We're involved in the challenge of building bridges of love, understanding,
and friendship between cultures, and on this bridge we cross over into
a deeper understanding of our own."
-Amity Teacher, Fujian Province
