1992<\/h3>
Founded Sowers Action<\/strong><\/p>\n

A group of ardent youths were preparing to found an education aid charity. They set their slogan as \u201cTransforming China\u2019s population burden into intelligence resource\u201d, and established working principles as \u201cOn-site Assessment, Direct Subsidy and Long Term Follow-up\u201d. Aiming at raising up the seedlings, the charity was named \u201cSowers Action\u201d. In November, the first Annual General Meeting was held. Though there were only 8 members, member structure and rules were carefully listed. Also, the Articles of Association specified that funds for education aids and operational expenditures must be raised separately.<\/div><\/div> <\/div><\/div>

Extended subsidy from Hunan to Yunnan<\/strong><\/p>\n

When the charity was founded, subsidy was focused in Guangdong and Hunan Province. With the rapid economic development in China, coastal areas and areas near Beijing-Kowloon Railways witnessed lots of improvements. However, the south-west and north-west regions were not benefited. As such, our subsidy strategy started shifting to Yongshan and Yiliang County in Zhaotong, Yunnan Province. <\/div><\/div> <\/div><\/div>

Give the accumulation of funds, it became necessary to enhance financial management so as to reduce financial risks arise from insufficient internal control. To prepare for future development, the Board of Directors proposed to amend the Articles in the AGM, to restrict board directors, unless authorized by the AGM, from signing contracts or cheques valued above 2 million Hong Kong dollars.

To raise public awareness of the deficiency of education resources in western China, we joined hand with China Youth Development Foundation, hosted the first \u201cLong March for Education\u201d, following the route of the Red Army\u2019s Long March. The committee had started the works since 2002 and originally planned it as our 10th<\/sup> anniversary event.

Participants started from Ruijin in Jiangxi Province in October, passed by Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan, Guizhou, Yunnan, Sichuan, Gansu, Ningxia, arrived at Wuqi in Shaanxi Province the following August. During the 305 days, participants passed through 10 provinces, 101 counties and completed a total of 8,038 km.

Subsidize a Girl\u2019s High School<\/strong><\/p>\n

We learned through cable news that a privately run high school in Nanning is closing due to financial difficulties and many students need to drop out involuntary. After series on-site assessment, we decided to subsidize this school which caters to girls living in poverty, and many of whom are from an ethnic minority origin. Since 2010, the academic results of the girl school keep improving. Outstanding students were accepted by various universities, including United World Colleges, Asian University for Women, and some even awarded with scholarship for their study in the United States.<\/div><\/div> <\/div><\/div>

After the severe earthquake, we initiated a school reconstruction project in disaster area. The project name, \u201cNo Give-up Even Earth Shattering\u201d, manifested our long-term determination in post-disaster reconstructions. We also guided the community to pay attention to other disaster areas outside the severely affected areas. Approved on 22 December by the Steering Committee on the HKSAR’s Support for Reconstruction in the Sichuan Earthquake Stricken Areas, funded by the trust foundation, we subsidized the reconstruction of two 9-year schools in Zhongjiang County of Deyang in Sichuan Province.

Extend subsidy to Orphanage School<\/strong><\/p>\n

We learned from Ganzu Education Bureau that there is a privately run orphanage school in Madang, Xiahe County, Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Gansu Province. After series of on-site assessment, we finally decided to subsidize this orphanage school.<\/p>\n

Set up Perpetual Education Fund<\/strong><\/p>\n

Due to the lack of stable funding source for administrative expenditures, in straitened circumstances, it was even more difficult to raise funds for expenditures. The Board of Directors decided to set up \u201cPerpetual Operational Fund\u201d and \u201cPerpetual Education Fund\u201d. Gains from investing the principal of the funds can be utilized to cover administrative and education aids expenditures.<\/p>\n

The 1-year \u201cSowers 512 Walk for Education\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Post-disaster reconstruction of Wenchuan Earthquake was arduous and lengthy. In order to raise funds to aid the reconstruction, we organized a 1-year large-scale fundraising event in disaster area. Named as \u201cSowers 512 Walk for Education\u201d, the event had its slogan as \u201cNo give-up even earth shattering, children in disaster areas await you\u201d. It started in May, and completed in May the following year.
