Project Report | Jun 25, 2014
Spring Aid Distributed & New Challenge TODAY!

By OCEF | Project Leader

Dear Donors,

We have great news to share with you!

TODAY, June 25th, we are given the special opportunity to participate in Microsoft YouthSpark Bonus Day! With $200,000 available, Microsoft is matching every donation 100%! We want to sincerely thank you. It is exclusively your strong support that made our project stand out and got invited. Let us take up this challenge together to win more money for the children!

(From June 25 at 12 PM (EDT) (noon) to June 26 at 11:59 (EDT), every donation from $10 up to $1,000 per donor is matched 100%. An additional $2,500 will be given to the project that raises the most funds and the project that has the most unique donors.)

In the past four weeks, we had finished distributing the first portion of our financial aid fund of the 2014 spring season. A total of ¥306,450 was given to 784 elementary and middle school students and ¥636,500 to 623 high school students. The students expressed their deepest gratitude to you.

The financial aid packages were usually delivered to students in ceremonies hosted by the schools that they were attending. Our inspectors then periodically visit aid-recipients’ schools and families to keep an account of their progress in school. The inspection results will become an essential factor in a student’s eligibility for future financial aid. We do our best to make sure that your support always goes to those who need it most.

We will keep you informed about the progress of our work and the conditions of our aid-recipients.

Thank you again for all your kindness and support.

Sincerely,
Overseas China Education Foundation
