Liqiang's Letter to Mai Pearls
Every year Mai Pearls donates 10% of the profits to a Chinese charity. Last year we donated the profits to Operation Blessing for their sponsor a Chinese student program. Here is a letter from one of the sponsored students;
Dear Uncles and Aunties:
How are you?
My parents need not worry about my cost of living since you have helped me go to school. And with the development of society and our country, my family’s situation is changing greatly so that we have enough food to eat.
Since China started carrying out the education policy of free tuition and free textbooks, we only need to make up for the cost of living in school. With your help, my family only needed to pay half of my living expenses when boarding in school. Instead, they now buy more rice for the family and send my younger brother to school with their savings. Going to school will change my brother’s life.
We just had an exam, and I scored 480 points, which is not good enough to me, so I will try my best to study harder. I clear know who I am, a new generation, the future of China and its successors, so I will never give up and I firmly believe that I will be successful.
Thank you for the new life you have given to me, which changes my destiny, and gives me a chance to back school, so that I will continue struggling for my dream. It is a good chance to me, and I will treasure it. Since I cannot return your affection today with anything else except, I can only say thank you with all my mind and all my heart.
Yours Sincerely，
Liqiang
