Do you know more and more Chinese artists have made regular donations to charity or put their
efforts into charity work in China? Here let's know some of them.
Faye Wong and her husband Li Yapeng started the Yan Ran Angel Foundation(基金会) for
harelipped(兔唇的) children three years ago. It was named after their daughter. Its purpose is to help
children under 14 to cure their harelips. The couple donated one million yuan (about $ 133,000) to start
the organization. |
Cong Fei was born in a poor family. He became a successful singer in Shenzhen. He helped 178
poor students and disabled people for more than 10 years. Before he died of an illness at the age of 37
in 2006, he decided to donate his cornea(角膜) to people with eye diseases. He helped six people see
the world. |
Guan Mucun has donated money to Project Hope to help poor students finish primary education.
Thirty of these poor students have already finished high school with her support. Guan has also helped
with charity work for environment protection, HIV/AIDS prevention, blood donation and "Mother
Water". Guan had an unlucky childhood: her mother died when she was only 10 years old. With the help
of the government and her neighbours, she grew up and was successful as a famous singer. |
Action star Jackie Chan is a wholehearted supporter of charities including UNICEF, Operation Smile
and his own Jackie Chan Charitable Foundation. In 2007, he used much of his spare time to visit the
farthest parts of China on his Dragon's Heart Charity Missions. The Dragon's Heart Foundation aims to
meet the needs of poor children and the elderly in the hardest-to-reach areas of the country. Chan has
made several trips to these poor villages, bringing warm clothing, wheelchairs and school supplies, and
helping to build schools. |
