In Xihu, our action to alleviate the poverty could be demonstrated by a motto that “we shall always trace our fortune back to original source, never stop pursuing grandeur success and don’t forget to alleviate poverty ”.

Instead of just a slogan, our poverty alleviation program has officially started to shed light on the numerous poverty stricken students form Guangdong, Hunan ,Tibet and North Shanxi since first Xihu “Hope School” was established in 1992. it was just like spring air travelling across thousand miles.

The outstanding unit award has been bestowed to Xihu Corporation in recognition of Xihu’s exceptional performance and meritorious deeds of education donation. Although transformation of state-owned enterprise into private one in 1992, continuity of donating schools has been firmly secured by the successors.

There was a family of three children surnamed Han living in Jingzhao Village of North Shanxi Province,. Zhaoying, 12 years old, was the eldest one. The second one Baoying was 9 years old and youngest one, Jianying, was a boy who was just 7 years old. The death of their parents left difficult time for three children and their grandma.This was just a showcase of people's living conditions in Luochuan region.Many great people of Luochuan had sacrificed their lives for the foundation of new China. There was a saying “ One Eighth Route Army soldier in three courtyards and one martyr out of 5 families.” Hanging at the entrance of many house caves were the glorious signboards to memorize those martyrs who died for the great revolution. Anyone present shall give condolence and grieves to the local people. Xihu Corporation started to build hope schools and launch poverty alleviation program, with initiative to give Luochuan children the opportunity to return school. A first batch of 35000 RMB was invested for construction of Luochuan Hope School.
