THERE ARE people who give religion a bad name. The ones who spout pious platitudes, yet their hearts are hard as granite.
Then there are those like Mary Chew. Chew is a true Christian.
The Oakland native's extraordinary story begins in 1990. Fresh out of college, she volunteered to travel to Haiti as part of a church mission to work at an orphanage called Christian Haitian Outreach.
The founder was doing the best she could with few resources. The orphans were far better off than the children starving and ragged in the streets. But the deprivation still broke Chew's heart. MORE @ Contra Costa Times
