In 2010, Pat Rothfuss posted about one of the many reasons he started Worldbuilders:  his son, and the terror he felt as a parent when he thought about not being able to feed his child. Since Chase was born earlier this year, I understand what he was talking about. I feel more clearly than ever how lucky we are to live in a country with abundant food, clean water, and reliable access to medical care, and I want to do the little bit I can to help Pat and Heifer International give other people the same security. So please consider donating this year, either here or at the main Worldbuilders page. Thanks so much for visiting!
