欣欣今年完成贈書計劃 Shin Shin Will Complete the Book Program 2010
【2010年2月20日Singtao Daily】
欣欣教育基金會與古市扶輪社經過多年合作,今年將完成「一人一書」的贈書計劃,共惠及12萬中國偏遠山區的學生。雙方表示將繼續攜手合作,通過為清寒學生提供教育機會幫助他們走出貧困。
Shin Shin has been
collaborated with the Cupertino Rotary Club in the book giving program for many
years. This year, we will complete the "one book per child" program, which
benefits 120,000 children in the remote areas in China.
昨日古市扶輪社向欣欣基金會頒贈了2009財政年度的7萬3000元的支票,贊助基金會為培養貧困學生閱讀習慣而開展的「一人一書」贈書計劃,令過去5年來,扶輪社匹配捐款的總額達到25萬4,000元。
昨日,歷屆古市扶輪社社長與欣欣基金會成員暢談與聯手合作5年來的難忘經歷。曾經3度帶團參訪欣欣小學的古市前市長Orrin Mahoney說,孩子們在雪中列隊迎接,找機會跟與美國來客練習英語的情景至今讓他記憶猶新。
古市扶輪社社長葛媛荷(Liz Gallegos)說,提高識字率是扶輪社重點關注和資助的項目之一,她期待與欣欣的合作模式為其他更多地區的扶輪社效仿。
欣欣教育基金會長朱偉人感謝扶輪社多年來給予的合作支持,他讚揚扶輪社成員時時處處發揮助人為樂的精神,先後數次給青海、遼寧、湖南等地的居民贈送了所需的醫療器械和總共近千張輪椅。
庫市扶輪社捐欣欣7.3萬元 Cupertino Rotary Donated 73K to Shin Shin
【2010年2月20日 World Journal】
庫比蒂諾扶輪社對欣欣教育基金會捐出有史
以來給欣欣單次捐款最大的一筆款項7萬3000元,19日下午由庫市扶輪社會長葛媛荷
(Elizabeth Gallegos)在扶輪社前會長及職員的陪同下,交給欣欣教育基金會會長
朱偉人。
Cupertino Rotary Club has made the largest single donation
$73K to Shin Shin Educational Foundation on Feb. 19th. Sandy Chau,
the president represented Shin Shin to received the contribution delivered
in person by the Cupertino Rotary Club president Elizabeth Gallegos accompanied
with former president and members.
扶輪社自2005年開始,多次對欣欣捐款,連同19日的支票,扶輪總共捐出25萬4千元,用於捐贈中國大陸偏遠地區學校圖書用。
葛媛荷表示,扶輪社有120萬會員分布於全世界,會員不但投身公益事業,捐助款項也包括了本地社區、全球需要、青少年服務、職業訓練等贊助。葛媛荷指出,教育方面的需求,一直是扶輪社長期關注的重點之一,未來對中國需要的教育,扶輪社仍將繼續贊助。
曾隨欣欣教育基金會到中國拜訪,前庫比蒂諾市長馬弘利指出,扶輪社在全世界各地都有分社,在中國只有北京及上海二所分社,對回饋地方的公益事業方面,仍有不足之處。
「與欣欣的合作是項很好的配合,」馬弘利指出,欣欣位於庫比蒂諾,是致力於教育的非營利機構,但又在中國各地建了300多所學校,長期照顧偏遠貧困地區,這些都合乎扶輪社的捐助條件,加上欣欣教育基金會的幾位前任會長和理事如龔行憲、丁永慶等人,同時服務扶輪社及基金會,結下良好合作關係。
朱偉人致詞感謝扶輪社長期以來的贊助。「在扶輪社的贊助下,欣欣總共捐贈了11萬1000本書,」朱偉人表示,達到欣欣多年前訂下的「欣欣學校一人一書」的目標。朱偉人指出,欣欣舉辦作文比賽,許多學童將得到書本的心得寫出,非常感人,可到< a href="http://www.shinshinfoundation.org/essaycontest2009/">欣欣征文比賽网站阅读。

【2009年12月13日星岛日报記者江智慧古柏蒂奴報道】 欣欣教育基金會年度籌款會於昨日下午在古柏蒂奴昆蘭中心舉行。
會長朱偉人在會中報告了欣欣教育基金會成果及未來目標,創會人之一卲中權也分享了他探訪這些學校的心得。籌款目標是35萬元,希望拉近中國偏遠地區學童教育城鄉差距。Shin
Shin Educational Foundation held its annual fundraising event at the Quinlan
Community Center in Cupertino yesterday afternoon. Mr. Sandy Chau,
Shin Shin’s president reported Shin Shin’s past accomplishment and introduced
the future goals. One of Shin Shin’s founding members, Mr. Zhongquan Shao, also spoke at the meeting. Shin Shin aims to raise $350,000 through the fundraiser and to use the money to further narrow the gap in education conditions between urban children and children who reside in remote countryside.
邵中權說,12年前,山溝裡的孩子需要一間不漏雨、有陽光的教室,於是欣欣教育基金會開始建校。至今在中國偏遠地區蓋起325所學校,卲中權也每年二度探訪這些學校,昨日他分享了千山萬里行的點滴。Mr. Shao, who has been
visiting schools on behalf of Shin Shin since 2004, said that Shin Shin
started with a simple idea 12 years ago: to provide the children in the
remote countryside with classrooms that have enough light and do not have
leaky roofs. To date, Shin Shin has help built 325 schools all over China.
At 80 years old, Mr. Shao has been making month-long trips twice a year for
the past few years and he has visited nearly all of Shin Shin’s schools.
Yesterday, he shared with the audience his experience and thoughts about his
visits to Shin Shin’s school and time spent with Shin Shin’s children.
欣欣教育基金會會長朱偉人表示,該基金會的義工及捐款人皆是來自華人社區的善s心熱情人士,都是為了教育百年大計共同付出,尤其古柏蒂奴歷任市長、市議員、扶輪社也大力支持,萬分感謝,也很高興昨日現場來這麼多人熱心參與,尤其多位義工捐出物品義賣,共同心願就是把關心帶到中國偏遠地區。對當地學童教育來說意義重大。Mr. Chau expressed his appreciation to Shin Shin’s donors and volunteers,
most of whom came from the community and joined Shin Shin to contribute back
to the community at large. Mr. Chau made special acknowledgement to the
city of Cupertino, its mayors, city council members and Cupertino Rotary
Club, who have continuously supported Shin Shin’s program and visited Shin
Shin’s schools. Mr. Chau was also delighted that so many were present at
the event. Many Shin Shin volunteers participated in the various programs
at the fundraiser, many of whom also donated items to be auctioned at the
fundraiser and/or made other generous donations to ShinShin.
他表示,今年繼續推廣圖書計劃、師資培訓,也提供許多音樂器材,所舉辦的徵文比賽得到100餘校、上百位教師、上簽名學生參與,工程浩大,成果也集結成書,希望藉此拋磚引玉得到善心人士共鳴,進而改善農村地區學童教育品質。至於四川地震受損學校也已經修建。According to Mr. Chau, Shin Shin will continue its successful follow-up
programs, including literacy program for providing books and building
libraries, English Teacher Training program for providing training to
teachers, and special follow-up fund that can be used to purchase
teaching equipments. Starting in 2008, Shin Shin also organized writing
contests, which were open to all Shin Shin schools. In 2009, hundreds of
teachers and thousands students from over 100 schools participated in the
writing contest. Shin Shin hopes to raise awareness so that more people will
support and/or join Shin Shin’s effort in improving the education conditions
of the elementary school children in remote areas in China. In 2008, Shin
Shin also organized a special earthquake relief program to help some schools
damaged during the Sichuan earthquake.

欣欣與北大合作暑期調研 Shin Shin Cooperated with Peking University in Summer
【2009年10月27日星岛日报】 欣欣教育基金會自1997年成立之後,在十二年之間於中國各地已陸續捐建修葺了325所欣欣小學。除了建校還有捐贈一人一書,設置電腦教室,英語師資培訓,改善學校設備的後續基金等計劃。讓中國偏遠地區的孩子們有一個較佳的讀書環境。 欣欣教育基金會執行長李競芬表示,近年來在中國經濟的快速發展衝擊下,各校的規模、交通及地區發展已有改變,導致學校的需求亦與前不同。為了解學校現況及需求,今年透過北大教育基金會施旭東總裁聯絡北大校友會及共青團北京大學委員會,第一次嘗試與中國國內大學社團合作。 由欣欣教育基金會會長朱偉人提供經費,湖南湘西區域負責人萬惠冬設計學校現況問卷調查表並協調湖南省僑辦協助落實計劃。配合北大學生放暑假而欣欣小學還在上課的時間,針對湖南湘西的欣欣小學進行測試性的調研工作。此次調研工作北大團委遴選及培訓了八位北京大學同學分為兩組,各七天時間訪問了湖南湘西34所欣欣小學中的22所學校。北大學生不僅僅是深入窮鄉僻壤為欣欣小學進行調研工作,調查欣欣小學現況及需求,還為身處鄉間的孩子們藉由大哥哥大姊姊的交流,知道讀書可以實現理想和對外界多一份了解。對於居住在城市的北大學生,經歷到鄉間孩子的純真與貧困,更珍惜自己能夠接受高等教育。期盼將來自己也能為社會多盡一分心力。 欣欣教育基金會除了與美國古柏蒂奴扶輪社、樹華、青樹基金會等多個教育基金會及社團合作外,進而與中國國內大學社團合作。今年與北京大學合作,未來希望能與清華思源或更多國內各省大學社團合作。縮短城鄉差距,校校上網,令地處偏遠的欣欣孩子們也能與世界接軌,是欣欣基金會的目標。 欣欣教育基金會歡迎各界捐款,也需要許多義工,有意者請與人力資源組組長田伯寧聯絡(408)905-TIEN。
一篇北京大學同學的日記: "我們只是給了他們一點點希望,他們卻給我們整個春暖花開的世界"
孩子們都非常天真可愛,讓我們大笑也大哭。孩子們說“想學普通話,因為那樣就可以早點出去打工賺錢”;孩子們說“想學電腦,更想要一個教我們電腦的老師”;孩子們說“喜歡讀書,…”我們想為孩子們做得太多,我們能為孩子們做的又太少,我們只是給了他們一點點希望,他們卻給我們整個春暖花開的世界... The children are very innocent and lovely. This makes me laugh and makes me cry. The children said, “We want to learn Mandarin so that we can go to work sooner and earn money.” The children also said, “We want to learn how to use a computer and we want to have a teacher who can teach us these skills.” The children continued on to say, “We like to study…” We want to do so many things for the children but can only do so much. We only gave them a little bit of hope; nevertheless, they gave us an entire warm and beautiful world...
