Start from The Ground up, Develop Education and Related Programs in China
Improving education is a long-term commitment that requires much planning, involving more than just having a physical school, teachers and students. As a result, Sowers Action took on a next step in 1999 to develop other enhancement projects, including training for teachers and special needs education fill the void.
In 2013, to address the urgent needs to provide care for orphans and children living in poverty, we launched a Children Home program and opened our first home in Yunnan. In these children homes, we adopt a whole-person education philosophy in their upbringing. In addition to providing for their basic needs, we pay special attention to developing their ethics and manners, sense of societal belonging, and physical and intellectual growth. In doing so, we want to make sure that they have good personal values and conducts, as well as practical skills to be able to integrate into and contribute to society. For children with special needs, our children homes have dedicated staff to give rehabilitation and mental health guidance to assist them.
