Essay / One Foundation Fresh blood for Chinese charities
There has been a wave of charity which has caused a series of unfortunate disasters since 2008: ice disaster, Wenchuan earthquake, southwest drought and Yushu earthquake. During disasters, people have a new appreciation for charity. Everyone committed to making donations and helping people affected by the disaster. Many private charities and government charity groups have been integrated into our daily lives. People can see many varied advertisements on charity and donation posters. However, One Foundation is the best known of these charitable groups. A foundation impressed people with its philanthropic idea and strong operational capacity. This fresh blood is the future of Chinese charity. A foundation was created by Jet Lee, a super movie star. In 2007, Jet Lee cooperated with the Chinese Red Cross to establish the Jet Li One Foundation project. On December 3, 2010, Jet Lee One Foundation was separated from the Chinese Red Cross and incorporated in Shenzhen. It then became the first private foundation in China (Jet Li). One foundation focused on four public areas: environmental protection, education, poverty and health (Jet Li). A foundation, fresh blood, opens a better path for Chinese charity. The philanthropic idea is very important for a charitable group. One Foundation introduced a new brilliant idea of charity to China: "One people, one month, one dollar, to love each other, take care of each other, we are one family (One Foundation). » Today, the idea of these three solutions is already widespread across the country. This idea completely changed the understanding of charity for Chinese people, compared to traditional Chinese charity. Traditionally, in China, most people thought that charity was the rich middle of the paper that others forgot to do. Shocked by what One Foundation did, One Foundation built many portable toilets (One Foundation). After the earthquake, people have to live on the streets and toilets are a big problem. Maybe people didn't notice it because of the sadness of the disaster. A Foundation solved the problem in an intangible way. What a calm organization. I believe they will take Chinese charity to a new level. A good charity group isn't just about giving a helping hand to those who need help. A good charity should come up with a good charitable idea to educate and inspire everyone to do charity. One grew to ten, ten grew to a hundred. What a huge consequence. This is what One Foundation is trying to do. Additionally, a good charity should be accountable to every donor. They should spend every dollar correctly and every energy wisely. I believe One Foundation is that good charity.
