Encounter Xi Da Tan
In
August of 2006, ZHU Yongxiang and other staff from
EDEN Foundation visited Huang Yang Chuan Town in
Gulang County. After they came to Huang Yang Chuan,
they found out that lots of social resources had
already been put into this town and there was another
poorer
place named Xi Da Tan nearby. ZHU Yongxiang group
then went to Da Xi Tan and found Da Xi Tan Middle
School. After their visit,
ZHU decided to help the school.
In April
of 2007, ZHU and other three staff from EDEN
Foundation visited our school again and donated
8,000 RMB. In addition, they decided to organize
some volunteers to teach in our school later. EDEN
Foundation then recruited 105 volunteers from
Taiwan. After several
times of communications and negotiations between our
school and EDEN
Foundations, specific plans about teaching contents,
accommodations, and schedules
were made and eventually the volunteering teaching
was carried out. |
