Project progress:
2. HPP and Sohu.com co-launched “Rural Preschool Plan”
The press release of the “Rural Preschool Plan”was held in the Sohu Media Building. The plan was co-launched by more than 10 organizations, such as SohuGongyi, Sohu baby, CCTF (China Children and Teenager’s fund), and Humana People to People China. The famous Hostess Ju Ping from CCTV also attended this ceremony as a goodwill ambassador.
During the ceremony, famous actor Yao Lu received the appointment letter of honorary principal in HPP Yunnan Zhenkang Shua Bu Chang village Preschool, winning the award for the “Most handsome POF principal”. This preschool has already started classes now and is the first preschool in the history of Shua Bu Chang natural village. Yao Lu said: “I am extremely proud of it. And I am willing to work hard for it for the rest of my lifetime.”
The large-scale public fundraising activity “Walk for one egg” hosted by Shanghai United Foundation has supported HPP POF project for two years. Shanghai United Foundation (SUF) cooperated with HPP China on the online fundraising activity on the Yahoo Gongyi and Global Giving websites, which have had good results. HPP’s project operations are well received by SUF and donors and HPP has been one of SUF’s key partners. Due to the excellent project operations, SUF awarded “Best project according to donors” certificate to HPP POF in Butuo county during the “Best project according to donors and outstanding Children’s project in walk for one egg activity” ceremony on August 24, 2013.
As an international grassroots organization in the Chinese public welfare arena, all of the projects of HPP are rooted in remote rural areas of western China. Let us go forward hand in hand for Chinese public welfare!
