Taiwan Hualian Growth Center donated 120,000 yuan for building dormitory for Qinghai Dacai Middle School

In August 2005, Mrs. Xiao and Mr. Tang, principal of Taiwan Hualian Growth Center visited 3 member schools of Town and Talent Corporation. They learned the story about a student named Bao Yulin from the teachers when they were in Dacai Middle School. And they were also told that some students living far from school had to be dropped out because the school had no dormitory.

After getting back to Taiwan, Xiao and other leaders of Hualian Growth Center had a discussion and decided to aid Bao Yulin so that he could carry on study. Town and Talent Corporation was authorized to be responsible for the operation. However, these warmhearted people have always been upset for the school’s problem of having no dorm.

Later, Mr. Tang contacted Town and Talent and got to know the expenses of constructing the dorm. By the end of 2005, Hualian Growth Center passed the project of raising money for building the dorm. The Center totally collected 122,549 yuan. One morning, an old woman cooking for others presented 10,000 Taiwan New Dollars to Xiao. She said to Xiao in misty eyes that her family was impoverished and could not support her schooling, she was sad when hearing of many children dropped out and the money was just a slender contribution. Much of the money was donated out of the same purpose and feeling.

The 122,549 yuan has been remitted to Dacai Middle School. On March 10, foundation of the dorm named Xin(confidence and honesty), Wang(hope) and Ai(caritas) was laid in Qinghai Dacai Middle School. Dai Han, chief of Taiwan Affairs Office Qinghai Branch said during the ceremony that Xin meant that the students should be confident and honest; Wang was that the students should have hope in their mind for better future and Ai was the grateful feeling and caritas. He hoped the students make contribution to the society as much as they could, study hard and value the current good learning condition as return to those people offering help. On April 14, Wang Fake, an architect from the supervising company checked the groundwork and announced it met the constructing demands.
