2018-12-05 Luo Haiyue started “Ofund,” short for Overseas Chinese Students Children’s Fund, while he was studying at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) back in 2007. The nonprofit organization has since changed the life of many needy children in remote Chinese villages. A trip to the rural area in China inspired the then sophomore from Shenzhen to start his cause of organizing annual events in which overseas Chinese students visit village schools in underdeveloped areas in China as volunteer teachers. The organization has progressed from focusing on financial aid and discipline-based teaching to quality education and career planning for the needy students in the remote villages, with the support of Shenzhen Project Care, a decade-long initiative to care for vulnerable groups with support from the local government. |
