Article today in the Raleigh News and Observer
From the article!!!
They live in poverty, but the Montagnards still offered what little they had each time Kay Reibold visited the tribal people of Vietnam's central highlands.
"They have so much compassion and love and genuine friendliness for me," she said. "They had very few chickens, and so to have a pig sacrificed or a chicken sacrificed in my honor was such an example of friendship and hospitality."
Now, Reibold, who has dedicated herself to repaying that kindness, has won $10,000 for her work with the Montagnard Human Rights Organization. Today she will receive the 2005 Unsung Heroines Award from Sen. Elizabeth Dole, who nominated her.
