建校計劃 School Project
自1998年至2007年底，基金會已先後在新疆、內蒙古、西藏、青海、甘肅、寧夏、河北、山西、陝西、 河南、廣西、江西、貴州、雲南、四川、湖南、湖北、江蘇、安徽、山東、黑龍江、吉林、遼寧、福建、海南、重慶等省市，偏遠或貧困地區共捐建了二百九十九所學校。2008年將會再加建十八所。基金會委請僑辦和教委協助，就基金會之原則，提供最需要援助的學校，或最需新建學校的地點的資料，由基金會審核，並組團實地考察後，選擇最恰當的學校。學校選定後，基金會和當地省僑辦簽訂協議書，商定工程計劃及付款方式。負責單位將工程實情報告和照片，寄交基金會存查。 At the end of 2007, 299 schools in 25 provinces or municipalities have been renovated, and over 100,000 children have benefited from our effort. Another 18 schools will be renovated in 2008. Through assistance of the Overseas Chinese Office and local Education Bureau of Chinese government, the Foundation researches and identifies schools that require immediate financial support. A three-way contract is entered among Shin Shin, provincial government, and local government. The Foundation visits the potential schools and existing beneficiary schools every year to conduct due diligence. The project is closely monitored to its completion.
後 續 計 劃 簡介 Follow-up Programs
欣欣教育基金會的最終目的是希望中國偏遠地區的學童們均有較佳的讀書環境。除了改建與修葺校舍外，基金會還提供後續基金為學校進一步的充實軟硬件內容，改變教學環境，並提高教學素質。 The ultimate goal of Shin Shin Educational Foundation is to improve the learning environment of all children, helping them receive the best education they deserve. In addition to rebuilding and remodeling deteriorated school buildings, Shin Shin has focused on providing on-going support to its schools. This includes enhancing the quality of education through monetary support, purchasing needed equipment, and providing programs to benefit the teachers and the students.
在此值得一提的是欣欣與其他團體及基金會合作， 希望能借助他人的經驗及資源使欣欣的後續計劃更 落實。2004年史坦福亞裔肝臟中心為欣欣四川的學 生注射了乙性肝炎疫苗。庫柏帝諾扶輪社及其他扶 輪社聯合資助了欣欣三年，從2005年的一萬八千美 元，到2006年的伍萬八千美元，到2007年的六萬美 元，對欣欣供獻匪淺。欣欣也借助了青樹基金會建 立圖書系統及樹華基金會發放獎學金的專業專長， 使欣欣的後續計劃能順利完成。 2008年欣欣將繼續實施各項計劃，後續基金 的來源也是我們往後最大的挑戰。欣欣誠摯的希望 欣欣學校的捐款人能繼續捐助後續基金照顧他們自 己的學校；其他的善心人士無論款額大小也能為貧 窮的孩子們開創美好的將來。Shin Shin has also been collaborating with other organizations and foundations. Shin Shin has leveraged the monetary resources and expertise from these groups to optimize the effort of improving the educational environment of Shin Shin schools. For example, Shin Shin has teamed with the Cupertino Rotary Club and other Rotary Clubs such as Mountain View Club, Campbell Club, and Beijing Club. From the $18K grant in 2005, to the $58K grant in 2006, to the $60K grant in 2007, Shin Shin truly appreciates the funding from the Rotary organization. Furthermore, the professional expertise from Evergreen Foundation and SOAR Foundation helped Shin Shin accomplish its Literacy Program and Scholarship Program. The biggest challenge facing Shin Shin is raising enough money in 2008 to continue the aforementioned follow-up programs. We sincerely hope that the existing school donors can help with the follow-up programs for their own school, and others can recognize the importance of the quality of education for underprivileged children.
-- 英語師資培訓 English Teachers Training Program
中國國家教委規定小學三年級以上必須開設英語課程。然而偏遠貧困地區，英語老師師資力量十分短缺。欣欣認為培訓師資可提高教學素質使學生受益，是最有效的投資。 The purpose of this program is to provide English training to Shin Shin elementary school English teachers, and to help them improve their English teaching skills. Shin Shin believes that training the teachers is an important task with huge returns.
-- 圖書計劃 Literacy Program
圖書計劃的目的是希望所有學童們都有機會廣泛的接觸，並養成學生們讀書的好習慣，一輩子受益無窮。圖書計劃包括圖書館的成立及培訓，與贈書兩部份。 The objective of the literacy program is to provide students in rural schools with broader access to books and information, and to cultivate the habit of reading and critical thinking, a life-long benefit. This program included book clubs and the formation of libraries.
-- 電腦計劃 Computer Lab Program
欣欣希望能為每一所學校電腦化，使老師學生們都會用電腦，並可以上網，可以迅速的得到外界的訊息。 Shin Shin recognizes the importance of the Internet and the advantage of using computers in order to have access to other areas of the world. Shin Shin started the endeavor of equipping all schools with computers.
-- 獎學金計劃 Scholarship Program
通過樹華基金會，100名欣欣學生得到四年的獎助 學金，直到他們初中畢業。Through SOAR Foundation, 100 Shin Shin students received scholarships for four years, helping them through school until their graduation from junior high school.
