In mid-January 2014, the Center for Civil Society Studies of Peking University

announced Top Ten Events in Social Sectors in China 2013, among which were direct

registration of four types of NGOs as a result of reforming the dual management system,

population policy shift from quantity control to structure optimization remarked by

the adoption of two-child fertility policy for couples where either the husband or the

wife is from a single child family, citizens’ actions urging the government to share the

responsibility to address the haze-highlighted environmental problems, Rule of Law

in China as a resolution of the 3rd Plenary Session of 18th CPC Central Committee

accompanied by a nationwide debate on political and legal basis for China Dream,

and smoother cooperation between NGOs and the government occurring during Ya'an

earthquake where the emergency response mechanism for disaster relief was challenged.

Reading through the Top Ten Events, we find that more and more public voices were

heard and taken seriously and eventually became driving forces to social development.

We are lucky to enter a great era of novelty, openness and progresses.

In such a great era, we should recognize changes timely, identify needs precisely, and

face difficulties unhesitatingly. Moreover, we should be fearless to try, innovate, practice

and implement.

In 2013, the Amity Foundation faced challenges squarely. In response to Ya’an

Earthquake, 23 Amity staffers and hundreds of Amity volunteers worked night and day

in earthquake-affected areas for 5 weeks. Amity organized an unprecedented relief fleet

opportunities, Amity re-launched

Monthly Donation to Support

Orphans on the payment channel

of WeChat and made branding

efforts through mobile social

media platforms like WeTaobao

and LaiWang. We hope new

technologies will enable new ways

for new philanthropy.

The year 2014 is seen as the first

year of China’s comprehensive

deepening of reform. The deepening

of reform and the implementation

of social governance are bound

to have a profound impact on the

development of the philanthropy

sector. Reform means changes while

changes bring opportunities and

challenges. At the nearly 30 years

old Amity Foundation, we look

forward to the changes and will

keep pace with them in full sail.

of 14 large trucks and 7 small ones

to convey the relief supplies. Totally

13 batches of various relief supplies

were distributed. The highest value

of single-day distribution reached

RMB 3.4 million. The remarkable

relief experience is destined to

become an indelible mark in

Amity’s 25 years of relief efforts.

In 2013, Amity eventually

established the Grace Forever Care

Fund. As the first fund dedicated

to caring and helping professional

philanthropist in China, the Grace

Forever Care Fund is not only

a suffering alleviator, but also a

symbol of humanitarian support

from the public.

In 2013, Amity led the way in

many aspects. While steadily

facilitating the development of

rural communities, Amity tested

the water of providing diversified

services to urban communities. To

meet the needs of an increasingly

aging population, Amity launched

three new eldercare centers and

upgraded existing eldercare

services. In cooperation with

the government, the business

sector and volunteer teams from

universities, Amity made great

efforts in NGO development and

community services focusing

on caring the elderly and the

differently-abled.

In 2013, Amity made continuous

progresses in embracing

e-philanthropy. According to

the latest report of Internet

development in China, the number

of China's mobile phone Internet

users reached 464 million as

of the end of June 2013. The

proportion of those using mobile

phones to access Internet to all

Internet users increased to 78.5%.

Among mobile applications, the

e-commerce ones experienced

particularly rapid development.

The era of mobile Internet has

arrived. While deconstructing

society, industries and lifestyles, the

mobile Internet brings more and

newer opportunities. To take the

I. Project Stories

Zhi Li, “Striving to Stand”

Zhi Li, a 19 years old boy, is

considered as a “big brother”

amongst our Family Retreat

participants. For a normal boy,

being 19 years old means he is free

to leave his parents and go to college

to start a new life journey. But the

situation for Zhi Li is different. He

was rejected by the world due to his

disability.

In the world’s eyes, Zhi Li is an

unlucky child. His parents divorced

when he was merely a baby.

Thereafter, he was abandoned to his

over 70 years old grandmother. He

was also unable to walk and learn

due to a serious brain injury caused

by a tragic accident during martial

arts exercises in his early childhood.

His life was limited and filled with

gloom due to his disability.

But after the Family Retreat Camp,

Zhi Li’s change could be easily

seen. Now he smiles and laughs. His

Church and Social Service“You crown the year with your bounty; your wagon tracks overflow with richness.” (Psalms 65:11)

grandmother told us, he was so happy that he even forgot food and sleep.

For the first time in his life, Zhi Li believed what he was often told, “we

all live under the same sky”. With helpful advices and encouragement by

special education professionals from the US-based Joni & Friends, Zhi Li

started to gain confidence for his own life. Defeating the thought of never

being able to walk, he tried to stand up. By leaning on balcony rail, Zhi Li

began to practice walking.

Now he is not afraid anymore of the outside world. He leaves his room, he

goes to church, and he even learns the Lord's Prayer. Zhi Li, whose name

means “striving to stand” in Chinese, stood up eventually!

A birthday celebration at the Family Retreat Camp

Journey to Intimacy

Family, the smallest unit of society,

is also considered as the most

basic element for social harmony.

A Christian family is the witness

of Christian’s Faith in the Lord. To

promote the concept of building

a harmonious family, Jiangsu

Christian Charity Fund (JSCCF)

invited Taiwan experts, Rev. Wang

Weijing and Xie Mochou, to lecture

in Jiangsu cities including Xuzhou,

Nanjing, Yangzhou, Zhenjiang and

Kunshan for the fifth Amity Yireh

Salon ——“Journey to Intimacy”

Couples Camp (Marriage Ministry

Workshop). Twenty-five couples

from churches in Nanjing joined

the camp. The Couples Camp

helped the couples to understand

each other again and enabled

effective communication among

them. Some couples came with

frozen connubiality, but left with

mutual understanding and warm

hearts enabled by the experts. A

participant said, "It seems that the

camp has made us fall in love again.

We trust each other more now."

II. Program Overview

Taking Jiangsu Christian Charity

Fund (JSCCF) as the core of our

work, we implemented church

and social service projects, made

branding efforts, enhanced the

churches’ ability of social services,

and facilitated the development

of Amity Social Service Network.

Totally 36 projects of the program

were implemented in 13 cities

across the province. Fund

available for JSCCF reached

RMB 2.05 million. Eighteen

training workshops benefited 1474

participants. The Environmental

Protection Action engaged more

than 16,000 actionists.

III. Achievements

1. Disability Ministry

Jesus said: “But when you give a

banquet, invite the poor, the crippled,

the lame, and the blind. And you

will be blessed, because they cannot

repay you, for you will be repaid at

the resurrection of the righteous”

(Luke 14:13-14)

Caring for those with disability

and sufferings has always been the

mission of churches. As a joint effort

of churches in Jiangsu Province,

JSCCF sponsored the Disability

Ministry Workshop and the first

Family Retreat, with the support

from Joni & Friends. Participants

to the disability ministry workshop

included 66 church leaders. The

Family Retreat Camp accommodated

15 families with members with

impairment.

2. Churches’ Joint Action on Environmental Protection

The Action features charity sales

advocating environmental protection.

In 2013, the Action was taken in 7

Jiangsu cities, namely Nanjing, Xuzhou,

Taizhou, Kunshan, Wuxi, Suzhou

and Zhenjiang. Amity facilitated the

establishment of four environmental

protection teams for churches in

Zhenjiang, Xuzhou, Suzhou and

Changzhou. More than 120 team

members attended the training. The

Environmental Protection Action has

become a flagship of local churches’

social service ministry.

3. Sponsoring Poverty-stricken Preachers

The project “Sponsoring Poverty-

stricken Preachers” aims to support

preachers in underdeveloped areas

of China. Guizhou was listed as

the initial province covered by the

project. In 2013, Yunan Province

and underdeveloped north part

of Jiangsu Province were added

into the coverage of the project.

The total number of supported

preachers reached 141. The support

includes living subsidiaries and

capacity building. Working with

Singapore-based GraceSpeak,

06 AMITY 2013

we arranged capacity building

workshops on church management

and pastoral counseling, resulting

in ability improvement and spiritual

enrichment for the supported

preachers.

4. Building the Amity Social Service Network

In 2013, 38 organizations were

added as new members of the

Amity Social Service Network.

The Amity Social Service

Network functioned well as a

platform of exchange, sharing,

training, assessment, consultation

and promotion for eldercare

organizations.

5. Church Capacity Building

To meet different capacity building

needs of churches, differently-

themed skill training workshops

were held in northwest provinces,

southwest provinces, Henan

Province, and Jiangsu Province.

The workshops had accumulatively

attracted more than one thousand

participants.

Community Development, Disaster Man-agement, Environmental Protection, HIV/AIDS Prevention and Public Health

I. Project Stories

Turning point in life

Yan Ruozhong is a common farmer

in Lianghe County. From his high

spirit and confident smile, you

can not imagine his history of

drug abuse for up to 20 years. He

was released from prison in 2011.

Prior to that, he had received 3

compulsory drug treatments up to

8 years. After his release, he has

been living in poverty without fixed

income. Soon he was diagnosed

with diabetes. The adverse situation

led him to relapse. Suffering

addiction, illness and poverty, the

withered man was hopeless.

The first turning point in his life

was methadone treatment. Initially,

he tried the methadone with doubt.

After six months’ treatment, he

told an Amity staffer, "I really did

not think I was able to restrain

the desire for drugs. It surprised

me!" Then he smiled shyly. After

regularly taking methadone, his

diabetes has also been improved.

Yan started working to support his

family.

The second turning point in his

life occurred when he joined the

"Home of Being Healthy Forever".

Established in May 2013, the Home

is a result of Amity’s community-

based HIV/AIDS prevention

project funded by Bread for the

World (BftW). The Home aims

to encourage drug abusers under

methadone treatment to become

more socially connected. Now,

Yan has been selected as the head

of the Home. At the beginning of

the establishment of the Home, he

did not know what would happen

in the future. After the first try,

the Home gradually attracted more

members. Mutual care and help

among the members made them

united family members. “I have

already been satisfied about my

physical recovery. I am surprised

again by the Home which I regard

as a gift for me. We had interesting

activities, made new friends,

and helped other people like us.

Sometimes I feel that something

new is poured in my heart. I used

to be selfish and not gregarious.

Now although it is stressful to

organize the activities and my

capacity is limited, I am willing to

work for my brothers and sisters.

I have a wish that we could lead a

better life.” Finishing these words,

he smiled shyly again with joy.

Better income, happier singing

Wang Bao, a 50-years-old male

farmer, is now the head of Hongqi

Village. In the beginning of this

century, it would be personal

suffering to be elected as the head

of Hongqi Village due to poverty

prevailing in the village.

Five year ago, Wang Bao was

elected as the village head. He

gave it a straight decline and his

wife was also against it. Other

villagers persuaded him to take

the job. They told him that many

villages nearby were getting better

and better through development

projects, but their village got

nothing. They were eager to make

changes. Finally Wang Bao took

the position. He decided to make

changes for the village and for

himself. One of his dreams is to

enable the villagers access to safe

drinking water, proper irrigation,

and good harvests.

He reached the Amity Foundation

through Amity’s local partner.

As his requests fell in compliance

with Amity’s project criteria, an

integrated rural development

project was implemented in Hongqi

Village. The first result of the

project was a new irrigation ditch

constructed in December 2013.

Wang Bao told Amity project

coordinator that the villagers in a

neighboring village doubled their

income after using a new irrigation

ditch. With irrigation, the dry soil

became arable. “We will definitely

make more money.” Wang Bao said.

As the dream for a better income

is coming true, the dream for

spiritual happiness should not be

left behind.

In the past, villagers of Hongqi

suffered dullness in their spare

time. Gambling and superstitious

activities were prevailing.

Amity projects came to the village

and many meetings and trainings

were held. Empowered by the

trainings, two female villagers

named Wang Yanmei and Jia Liucai

discussed with other women in

the village and decided to build up

their own Women’s Association. A

08 AMITY 2013

management team was also elected.

They set up their development

strategy and organized cultural

and entertainment activities to

ease the prevailing excessive

drinking, gambling and inadequate

communication among the

villagers. More cultural activities

and less gambling resulted

in more changes. They read

more books, they learn more

agriculture knowledge, and they

are more willing to take care of the

elderly. Moreover, there are less

superstition and fewer quarrels.

OverviewII. Program Overview1. Public Health and HIV/AIDS Prevention

The project aims to improve

community sanitary conditions,

increase community health

awareness, cultivate community

cohesion and build up a

community-level disease defense

system. Attention is also paid to

village-level health care, female

health development, health

education of floating population,

health promotion in minority areas

and health care for children in the

middle and west areas of China.

Community-based HIV/

AIDS prevention efforts were

continuously made in the HIV/

AIDS prevalent areas such as

Yunnan and Guangxi provinces.

2013 AMITY 09

A local system of HIV/AIDS

prevention and control was built

up through community-based

integrated approaches. Based on

the latest HIV/AIDS epidemic

trend, HIV/AIDS prevention

actions were initiated for high-risk

populations.

2. Community Development and Environmental Protection

New strategies for community

development projects in rural and

urban communities were launched

in 2013. More efforts for rural

integrated development projects

were focused on community-

based capacity building, as well

as organizational and cultural

development. The project coverage

was further expanded to urban

communities with a focus on

migrant workers and disadvantaged

urban population.

One of the most notable

achievements of environmental

protection projects in 2013 is

local resource development.

To this traditionally oversea-

resource-dominated category,

a breakthrough was made. A

new local resource development

mode was established. To meet

the demands of local resources,

we made a significant project

innovation, portable biogas tank.

3. Disaster Management

A participatory approach was

continuously promoted throughout

all project phases of disaster

management projects in 2013.

Prompt emergency responses

were made towards the Ya’an

Earthquake in Sichuan Province,

the huge flood in Southwest China,

and the Dingxi Earthquake in

Gansu Province. Recovery and

rehabilitation projects for Ya’an

Earthquake were initiated while

those for Yiliang Earthquake were

finished as planned.

III. Achievements

In 2013, 49 projects were

implemented in 56 cities/ counties

of 13 provinces/ municipalities/

autonomous regions in China.

Food Aid to North Korea and

International Biogas Project in

Madagascar continued smoothly.

All the projects benefited a total of

1.48 million people in 2013.

Education & Orphan Fostering

I. Project Stories

A Walking Hero

In the summer 2013, Daozhen

County became our target area. We

surprisingly found a detailed record

in the documents from Daozhen,

including life stories and contact

information of 130 orphans.

It was An Jianhong, a 38-year-

old local man of Gelao ethnic

minority, who wrote this record.

His left hand became handicapped

because of a big fire. Graduated

from Guizhou University in

1997, Jianhong came back to his

hometown. He had a simple dream:

leading people here to a richer life.

Then he became an official of local

government.

We met Jianhong in Daozhen in

2013. He took us to visit orphans

there. We didn’t know he had

carsickness until he ran off the

car and vomited. Suddenly, we

realized that Jianhong collected

information for that record by

walking! We counted the distance

he walked for that record: 2,600

km in total! Every time after long

distance walking, Jianhong asked

for orphan’s information patiently.

An Jianhong is an epitome of our

project partners. “Fighting for a

better life for poor orphans” was

the goal of our partners. Their

persistence has been turned into

a seed of love, germinating in the

children’s hearts.

II. Program Overview

The Education & Orphan Fostering

Program aims to help children in

need, by enabling them access to

helping resources. The program

covers financial support to poor

students, orphan fostering and

school rebuilding.

In 2013, we provided foster care to

6,920 orphans, rebuilt 16 schools,

financially supported 2,020 poor

students, and offered 4,130 sets

of desks and chairs to schools in

rural and mountain areas in China.

In addition, we donated books to

schools and collected donations

on line to cover medical costs for

5 children. The program directly

benefited 13,682 people, with

45,116 potential beneficiaries.

III. Innovative Efforts

Project InnovationIn 2013, according to our partners’

suggestions and the principle of

“Be convenient, professional and

high-efficient”, some adjustments

to our projects were made. Firstly,

feedback materials were redesigned

to work in with the Harmony in

Neighborhood Action, in respond

to the project goal of “happily

receiving aids without stress”.

Secondly, feedback materials

became more diversified and closer

to target children’s daily life (i.e.

writing assignments, test papers).

We proposed that a social workers

system and training programs

should be developed in target

schools. By taking specialized

courses (i.e. child psychology,

social work methodology, training

trainer), teachers in rural schools

could assume the role of social

workers and offer professional

services for better development of

target children (i.e. orphans and

left-behind children).

Based on the basic demand survey

on target schools that had been

rebuilt, two more special surveys

for the Rural Schools Rebuilding

Project were conducted in 2013.

Construction of new classrooms to be completed soon

Students with new desks and chairs

14 AMITY 2013

Two possible improvements were

put forward. First, project content

were increased from rebuilding

school buildings to adding

drinking water facilities. Second,

beneficiary-participation in this

project were encouraged to meet

the project vision of “All-Round

Development”.

mOverviewManagement InnovationIn September 2013, we suggested

our partners that performance

evaluation, including funds

disbursement, feedback collection,

information transfer and resources

support, should be conducted

among target areas. Scale and

direction of future cooperation

should be based on performance

evaluation.

A flat management network for

Rural Schools Rebuilding Project

was established in 2013, which

built direct connection between

target schools and us. In this

flat network, project officers

monitored the project schedule

and efficiency by communicating

directly with partners. Supervisory

function of local partners had been

strengthened through this network.

Management Technology InnovationAt the end of 2013, an information

management platform for

Education & Orphan Fostering

was developed preliminarily. The

platform consists of an “outside

part” and an “inside part”.

The “outside part” focused on

information publication and on-line

consulting. Including items such

as pairing, financial transaction

and interaction records, the

“inside part” was applied to system

management among beneficiaries,

partners, sponsors and applicants.

The platform pre-sets a channel

reaching our project targets directly

and offering technical support

to the flat management network

mentioned above.

Education and International Exchange

I. Project Story

“How time flies! It is almost half a year since the first day I arrived in Norway. I have more time for working than the very beginning. It is very learning in working……Beside the ordinary daily work, I also join some camps and do some information work, for example, to introduce Chinese New Year, Church and Christian in China, and also ‘andakt’--- devotional.

“Life here is quiet easy and peaceful. After work, I usually take a walk outside and sometimes go hiking with my host family. I also enjoy reading books and watching TV in my free time. Recently, I spend a lot of time in writing book reports and the second paper, which are the homework of this program. On Tuesday night, I always go to the English Bible Study, where half of the group are internationals, and they are around my age. We always have a lot of talks with each other. I feel really involved and like a member of this big family because of the love from Jesus. On Thursday

2013 AMITY 15

night, I always join KRIK group and have a nice activities night.

“My host family, who I think are the best people with me during this time, is taking good care of me and their kids are very nice and lovely. I love them very much. And their suggestions are very important to me. Their kids are very young, so when I talk with the kids, I have to speak in Norwegian. Thanks to that, now I think I can understand almost all what they want to say. And I can also use my “just-so-so”

Norwegian to communicate with other Norwegians. By the way, I keep reading a little Norwegian Bible every day.

“I am always wondering why my host family is so willing to help me and take good care of one person like me who they’ve never met before for half a year. The only reason must be the love from God. When I look back my life, there were full of grace from God. Nowadays when I think about my future I feel clearer than ever before- to pass on

the love I have been given to. “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.” So I decided when I come back to China, I will try to make kids know God. For example, to build up KRIK groups and to make comic books about Bible stories, so that kids can get to know in a very interesting way.”——By Xu Jiaen, a young Chinese Christian sent to Norway in August 2013 as a participant of Young Christians Exchange Program

II. Program overview

The Education and International

Exchange programs aim to

contribute to educational

development in China, to promote

cultural exchange between Chinese

young people and those from

overseas, while bridging the gap of

education opportunities between

eastern and western China. The

Education and International

Exchange programs give priority to

less-developed areas, in particular,

to minority regions. Disadvantaged

groups in comparatively developed

areas in China also number among

our beneficiaries.

III. AchievementsAmity Teachers Program

In recent years, most of the

Amity teachers have been placed

in teacher- training institutes in

smaller cities of western China.

In the academic year 2013-2014,

there were six foreign teachers

participating in the Amity Teachers

Program. These teachers came

from Germany, the UK and the

USA, and are placed in teacher-

training colleges in Gansu and

Inner Mongolia. They teach

English and/or western culture to

their students who will be primary

and middle school teachers in rural

areas.

Service-Learning Program

Service-learning program aims

to integrate relevant community

services with instruction

and reflection to enrich the

learning experience, teach civic

responsibility, encourage lifelong

civic engagement, and strengthen

communities for the common good.

In the year of 2013, over 5 groups

of 76 volunteers came to China for

the program. They came from the

United States, Denmark, Japan

and some universities in China to

jointly participate in various service

learning projects hosted by Amity

Foundation. They were involved

in the work with local grassroots

NGOs through the Amity NGO

Development Center. Through the

program, participants have not only

developed a better understanding

of Chinese culture and the society,

but also enriched their knowledge

of providing valuable services to

different target groups.

International Christian University (ICU)-Amity Service-Learning Program

This Service-Learning Program

contains two parts in 2013. The

first part is ICU students group

coming to China, and the second

part is Chinese students going to

ICU in Japan.

Upon invitation from the ICU

in Japan, Amity selected eight

Chinese university students from

Nanjing University and Nanjing

Normal University to participate

in a three-week service-learning

project in ICU Japan. They left for

Japan in September and returned

in October, 2013. During their stay

in ICU, they attended lectures,

visited NGOs and museums, and

attend special activities with ICU

students.

Summer English Program

The Amity Summer English

Program started 28 years ago.

Volunteers have been invited from

overseas to provide English training

to Chinese English teachers from

less developed areas.

2013 AMITY 17

In July 2013, 28 volunteers from

Germany, the UK and the USA

came to China and provided a

three-week well-prepared oral

English training course to teachers

of English from primary and middle

schools. These foreign volunteers

were grouped into 8 teams and

placed in 8 sites in 10 provinces.

About 900 Chinese English-

teaching teachers from central

and western China attended the

training. Some of the trainees

came from ethnic minority areas.

Every year, the volunteers provided

not only training but also their

dedicated compassion.

Young Adults Program

Since its beginning in 2005, the

Amity Young Adults Program

has attracted many young people

from western countries. Most of

them are high school graduates

and come to serve in China for six

months to one year, before entering

universities in their home countries.

These young adult volunteers teach

oral English in primary schools

and middle schools, while studying

Chinese language and culture.

In the school year 2013-2014, 14

young volunteers from overseas

joined the Amity Young Adults

Program. Among them, nine were

from Germany and the USA. They

were placed in 9 schools in Jiangsu

and Gansu province.

High School Students International Exchange Program

In addition to playing a traditional

role in hosting volunteers overseas,

the Amity International Youth

Exchange Program makes it

possible for Amity to send Chinese

young volunteers abroad.

Starting in summer 2012, the

Amity High School Students

International Exchange Program

has opened a wider door for high

school students to step into a

different culture. Students in this

program stay in host families and

go to middle schools in a foreign

country. In July 2013, one student

finished one-year exchange and

returned to China. He continued

the high school study in his

hometown. In 2013/14 school

year, 5 new students were selected

and now are living and study in

Germany.

Young Christians Exchange Program

2013 -2015 is the second cycle of

the CONNECT program and this

year is the first year of the second

cycle. CONNECT program aims to

raise responsible young leaders who

take new initiatives and engage

in developing their organizations

and societies. Marthe and Katrine

are two Norwegian high school

graduates who are in their early

twenties. They arrived in Nanjing

in fall and have been placed in

the Amity Children Development

Center. Firstly they have no idea

of how to work with children

especially children with autism.

They found hard to communicate

with them due to language and

after three months of doing

volunteer works in the center, they

have get along with all the children

quite well with the support of

Amity staff. “Body language is

universal, you can always smile to

way” Katrine said. Both girls plan

to take further study in relation to

children while they are going the

university. The program provides a

grateful platform for students who

like to experience different culture

aspects and to be involved in

different social activities between

China and Norway. “Right now

I just got so used to the Chinese

culture and I think I will get a new

culture shock when I get back to

Norway again”, said by Marthe.

Both of them felt that they did

possess certain connections with

China which was far beyond words.

future plans with us. A girl from

Banzhuyuan high school, Anhui

mountain area for life and she loves

traveling and she expected to see

the beach and to enjoy the sunshine

on the beach. After graduation

from the high school she wanted

to study tourism so she can travel

while working.

In addition, Amity has sponsored

30 poor students in Lishui County

Senior Middle School near Nanjing.

The sponsored students come from

families plunged into poverty due

to the death of one or both of their

parents, due to a chronic illness

or disability which their family

members have suffered from.

IV. Reflections

Amity international exchange

programs are designed with the

aim of encouraging cross-cultural

exchanges between different

countries:

Communication with Amity

foreign volunteers has provided

opportunities for youth people

in west China of learning about

other countries. Meanwhile, young

people from foreign countries

have also been offered a platform

to learn Chinese language and

culture, to understand Chinese

young generation, and to experience

Chinese life.

Amity’s Christian root makes

it sure that Amity is able to

provide young Christians from

other countries opportunities to

communicate with their Chinese

peers and get some insights into

Chinese churches and Christians.

Programs provide services

opportunities for young volunteers

I. Project Story

Nannan

Nannan’s birth brought great joy to

his family. But when Nannan was

two years old, his parents found

that he still couldn’t say “papa” or

“mama”. The parents took Nannan

to the hospital and Nannan was

diagnosed as having autism.

Now Nannan is over primary

school age. As a child from a

migrant worker’s family, Nannan

was rejected by local schools.

Chunya became the only resource

available to him. In Chunya, there’s

a rehabilitation project for autistic

children, which is supported by

Amity. This program offers family

supporting related services and it

accepts children like Nannan. After

two years rehabilitation, Nannan

has made great progress, especially

in interpersonal skills. He used to

be introverted, and did not take

the initiative to communicate with

others. Usually in the training, he

was very quiet. But now, he not

only interacts with his peers, but

also takes the initiative, particularly

in outdoor activities. Teachers in

Chnunya said his motor nerve was

activated. He likes dancing and

jumping up and down. How happy

he is!

II. Program Overview

We have continued our work

in providing needed services

and increasing awareness and

advocacy for marginalized groups,

mainly people with special needs.

Breakthroughs were made in Hopeful

discovered among the children we

serve. In project management, the

role of local coordinator and medical

experts are reinforced.

Our programs center on improving

2013 AMITY 21

the quality of life for adults afflicted

with leprosy, the poor, and other

disadvantaged groups in society.

We seek not only to address the

direct inequalities that these groups

face, but to also change the way

these groups are perceived at the

government and societal levels.

In our work, we have continued to

update and improve on our existing

programs using international models

in social services and childcare

and adapting these ideas to the

China social landscape. China’s

development in the care and

protection of vulnerable populations

is often antiquated and ill equipped

to meet the needs of these people.

Our programs incorporate and

adapt these international standards

for the protection of rights and

services in order to improve China’s

social development and to eliminate

barriers of discrimination.

III. Achievements

Support and Sponsorship Projects for the Orphanage Children

It continues to support and

address the needs of physically

and/or mentally handicapped

orphans living in social welfare

institutes. We seek to improve the

overall quality of life and social

standards for these orphanage

welfare institutes sponsored

by Amity. There are currently

106 “Grandmas” working in 26

social welfare institutes. These

Grandmas provide for the physical

and emotional care of orphans

living in the institute by engaging

in rehabilitation and physical

therapy exercises, teaching basic

knowledge, and playing games

and providing orphans with

love and care otherwise not

available to them. The Grandmas

in turn feel a sense of pride and

happiness in their work knowing

that they are providing much-

needed services to these children.

In recent years, the Grandma

Project has received increasing

attention from international groups

and government social welfare

institutes, making more resources

available for the Grandmas to fund

projects for the children.

comprehensive, specialized care in

rights of deaf children to use CSL,

the language they are most easy to

access, to receive equal education

from pre-school; promoting deaf

people’s participation in deaf

education and providing CSL

training to the parents so as to

improve the communication

between parents and child at

home. In 2013 there were 225

children in the 21 bilingual classes

from preschool to Grade 6 in the

ten project schools having been

benefited directly by receiving

the bilingual education taught by

both hearing and deaf teachers.

The 21 deaf teachers, who taught

in cooperation with their hearing

counterparts in these bilingual

project schools, have played very

important roles in the projects.

Besides the project activities at the

school level, the SigAm projects

received the external evaluation

done by the Norwegian expert in

social development in September.

The findings of the evaluation

are very positive. It states in the

Evaluation report that the SigAm

Bilingual Education Project has

been carried out successfully in

the ten project schools in Sichuan,

Guizhou and Chongqing. Deaf

children have greatly benefited from

the project and greatly improved

their language abilities both in sign

language and Chinese. The deaf

teachers’ participation and use of

sign language as an effective tool

in classroom teaching have greatly

improved the quality of education.

SigAm Bilingual Deaf Education Projects in the Western Provinces (2010-2014)

The western SigAm project is the

continuation and expansion of the

Jiangsu SigAm project (2004-2009),

aiming at using the experiences

gained in Jiangsu to promote

bilingual deaf education to the 10

selected special education schools in

Sichuan, Guizhou and Chongqing,

by teaching deaf children Chinese

Events have shown that the deaf

children have developed better in

cognition; social and emotional

developments and gained better

academic results. This event-based

project has changed many people’s

attitudes towards sign language

and deaf people. In Oct., the

Conference of Experiences Sharing

and Promotion of the SigAm

bilingual deaf education projects

was conducted in Guiyang. About

100 participants in the special

education field from all over the

country attended the conference.

They were the teachers and

principals from the SigAm project

schools, other special education

schools, government representatives

and university scholars.

The SigAm project extended

its impact to the universities in

Nanjing and Chengdu by setting

up an Introduction of Chinese Sign

Language course for university

students. The course is taught

by the deaf teachers from the

SigAm project, thus having greatly

changed people’s attitudes towards

deaf people and made great impact

in the society.

With the support of FELM, the

bilingual deaf education projects

were promoted to the other 7

schools in Hunan: Yueyang Special

Education School, Longhui Special

NGO Development

I. Project Story

Small idea, big dream

The development of a philanthropy

course may be derived from a

simple wish or a pure loving heart.

However, such a tiny wish or loving

heart is so precious that it needs

to be supported and recognized.

In 2012, Mr. ZHU Guangjun, a

teacher with a leg disability, came

to Amity NGO Development Center

and henceforth his pioneering work

of helping the people with disability

started. His work originated from

the tiny idea that people with

disability could learn art and have

fun. In the beginning, it was not

certain if an organization could

be established on such a tiny idea.

However, Amity NGO Development

Center believed that everyone

devoted to social service could have

the development opportunity. With

the support of the Amity NGO

Development Center, Mr. Zhu

established Jiuzhou Culture and Art

Center for People with Disability

which aims to help people with

disability to learn art skills and

improve self-confidence. In 2013,

Amity NGO Development Center

supported Jiuzhou Culture and Art

Center for People with Disability

in planning development direction,

improving professional competence,

expanding resource channel, and

achieving rapid development and

growth. In 2013, Amity NGO

Development Center enabled

Jiuzhou access to enterprise

resources. The enterprises in

the ceramic restoration business

provide sheltered employment to

people with disability. Working with

the enterprises, Jiuzhou has helped

many people with disabilities to go

out and win respect from society.

Moreover, Jiuzhou’s services have

been recognized by governments

of all levels and won supports from

Venture Philanthropy funds at the

levels of Nanjing City and Jiangsu

Province.

II. Program Overview

In 2013, Amity NGO Development

Center focused on developing

community-based NGOs, expanded

its service categories and resource

channels, and made great efforts

in operation standardization and

project innovation. Significant

achievements were made in team

building, service innovation and

resource development.

III. Achievements

1. Team Building

In 2013, Amity NGO Development

Center improved its management

systems on financial management,

job responsibility fulfillment and

performance assessment to ensure

standardization and effectiveness

of internal management. Plenary

meetings and internal salons

were held to facilitate internal

communication and sharing.

Experts from Australian Anglican

Church and Taiwan-based Begonia

Foundation were invited to provide

professional supervision on staffers

of the Center. Functional teams

were organized to participate in

external exchange and training

workshops. In 2013, the Center

enjoyed a remarkable improvement

in its staff’s competence.

2. Development of Core Services

Amity NGO Development

Center made continuous study

on approach and methods of

NGO development. More service

categories and methods were

developed to facilitate faster

development of non-governmental

organizations.

(1) NGO development

Amity NGO Development Center

facilitated development of all sorts

of non-governmental organizations

by providing concentrated support

and specialized capacity building

to the NGOs.

a. Concentrated support

Concentrated support to start-up

NGOs enjoyed steady progress in

2013. Great innovative efforts were

made on carving out new ways

of developing the start-up NGOs.

Supported by Venture Philanthropy

Fund, 29 non-governmental

organizations in Nanjing, Nantong

and Kunshan received our

concentrated support. In 2013,

we attached more importance to

investigation and assessment on

needs of communities and NGOs.

We focused superior resources on

classified support to the NGOS and

arranged training and supervision

flexibly according to needs of the

NGOs. Experimental efforts of

classified support to disability-care

NGOs in Nanjing and teenager care

NGOs in Nantong have resulted in

best practices of on-demand NGO

development.

26 AMITY 2013

b. Capacity building

In 2013, capacity building was

provided to various NGOs

according to their needs. On-

site visits, sharing of practical

experiences by outstanding NGO

leaders, and introduction of best

practice from overseas enhanced

effectiveness of capacity building.

Taking the opportunity of entrusted

management of governmental

resources, we organized more than

50 training workshops on eldercare,

teenager care and disability care.

The workshops attracted active

participation of around 300 NGOs.

c. Philanthropy resource

management

Amity NGO Development Center

provided resource support for NGO

development through governmental

venture philanthropy programs.

In 2013, we conducted several

venture philanthropy programs

for governments at municipal and

district levels in Kunshan and

Nantong to assist the governments

to manage venture philanthropy

funds of more than RMB 6

million. The venture philanthropy

program implemented in Nantong

benefited over 100 NGOs, which

had made significant progress in

standardization and specialization.

The venture philanthropy

program in Kunshan focused on

optimization of work flows and

management systems and aimed to

improve specialized competence

of NGOs categorized as eldercare

providers, teenager care providers,

and community service providers.

The program in Kunshan enabled

39 philanthropy projects access

to venture philanthropy funds.

Through venture philanthropy

resource development, we

facilitated the NGOs with

resources for implementing service

projects and opportunities to build

their capacity.

(2) Building a favorable

environment for NGOs

In 2013, we made great efforts

on advocating philanthropy by

promoting exchanges within

the sector, multi-functional

cooperation, and research on the

sector.

a. Exchanges

In 2013, Amity Philanthropy

Salon focused on advocating

philanthropy. By the end of

2013, we had held more than

10 salons with themes covering

drama, education, disaster relief,

community governance, and

non-governmental international

exchange. The salons were open

to the public and attracted more

than 1,000 participants. Amity

Philanthropy Salon has become

an advocacy and communication

platform for both Amity and the

start-up NGOs. in Nanjing.

To facilitate NGOs' cooperation

with the government and the

business sector, we worked with

Nanjing Venture Philanthropy

Association to launch the 1st

The Amity Development Forum 2013

2013 AMITY 27

Philanthropy Project Fair in

Nanjing. At the Fair, Nanjing

Municipal Civil Affairs Bureau

and authorities of 11 districts of

Nanjing offered 1,584 projects for

open bidding from NGOs.

b. Research

We held the Amity Development

Forum 2013. With the theme of

“NGO Development: Reflections

and Expectations”, the forum

attracted participants from

the government, the academic

community, and the philanthropy

sector. Mr. QIU Zhonghui, vice

board chair and general secretary

of the Amity Foundation addressed

the forum by advocating Amity’s

SMGY Philosophy on transparency,

wisdom and values in philanthropy.

In 2013, our work teams made

intensive investigation on

community needs to build a

database for NGO development.

The team in Nantong conducted

community-based investigation on

categorized services of teenager

care and caring families suffering

the loss of their only child. The

investigation contributed a lot to

the classified support to NGOs.

3. Innovation and Achievements

even elected as a Star Inmate for his

enthusiastic participation in activities

arranged by the center.

Amity Rengu Nursing Home

took action quickly. Pastors,

social workers, art therapists,

caregivers and nurses worked

together to provide hospice care. A

comprehensive plan for medication,

diet, emotional comfort, spiritual

support, and family connection

was developed and implemented

for Mr. Zhu. The pastor gave him

a hand at the spiritual level and

prayed for him every day. Members

of a church nearby were invited to

visit him and pray for him. Visits

from his families and relatives

were arranged everyday. Guided by

nurses, caregivers and interns cared

for him day and night. Prevention

of decubitus, maintenance of oral

hygiene, and all sorts of attentive

care were taken. Mr. Zhu passed

away in late 2013 peacefully.

Satisfied with the hospice care for

Mr. Zhu, an inmate said, “He was

cared for perfectly at the end of his

life. He died blissfully.”

Father's Day tears

Students at the Amity Children's

Development Center are basically

taken care of by their mothers or

grandmothers. Fathers are always

working hard outside and have

less time to spend with their slow-

learning children. They knew little

about the rehabilitation situation

of their children at the center. On

Father's Day this year, the staff

of the center worked with social

workers to organize a party for the

students and their fathers. At the

party, the dads watched the video

of their children having classes.

A special video made for every

child was also played. Hearing his

the video, every father was deeply

touched. Tears ran down the faces

of many of the fathers.

II. Program Overview

We should acknowledge the support

of our partner Mission One World

for sending Mr Martin Lachmann to

work with us, whose ingenuity and

efforts have made this possible.

A further major milestone was the

building of a more robust database

of people who have been supporting

our cause. In yesteryears, for want of

manpower, we have not been able to

store data of supporting individuals,

churches and organisations in

electronic platforms systematically

enough for easy down-stream data-

processing. With the support of IT experts from the Hong Kong Council

of Social Services, we have now developed a more structured platform and

should be able to respond to the needs of supporters with more facility.

Taking a page off the Bible, we are

funds to build systems so water

of individual households, thereby

dramatically improving the lives for

Two new systems were build last year:

Walk for Living WaterGrowing out of the Living Water

Project as a response to the UN’s

call for concrete action to help water-

deprived people and public education

for the water crisis, this Walk in

March has now a life of its own.

A total of 800 people participated

in the Walk activities, which were

officiated by Bishop Louis Tsui of

the HK Sheng Kung Hui Eastern

Kowloon Diocese and Mr. C. S. Chin,

J.P., Assistant Director of the Water

Supplies Department. The “Strong

Men’s Competition” attracted a total

of 7 teams, who had to demonstrate

braun, teamwork and problem-

solving skills in order to win prizes.

Against the carnival-like backdrop of

colour and action, it turned out to be

a hilarious event for all participants

and watchers, adding much colour

and fun.

The education-through-fun concept

has caught on in several local schools,

some of which even borrowed the

poles-and-bucket sets and organised

Mini-walks in their own compounds

to raise money to support our work

on water.

The prize-winners’ of the Walk

earned themselves an unforgettable

trip to Yongshun, Hunan in July.

By experiencing some of the harsh

realities in the water-deprived

villages, the young visitors got to

understand better the challenges

in the daily lives in these remote

corners in China. From their post-

visit reflections, it was clear that they

had developed a more empathetic

view towards the needy people and

a better understanding of how even

small personal acts would be making

a difference for such marginalized

groups.

Disaster Relief and Rehabilitation It has been a bad year as far as

disaster relief is concerned. Two

earthquakes in China, one in April in

Yaan, Sichuan and the other in July

in Dingxi, Gansu devastated the lives

of thousands of families. The wide-

spread floods during July in Sichuan

and Guangxi left many ecologically

vulnerable villages much worse off.

As usual, Amity personnel were

quick on the move into these areas to

spearhead our relief work. Members

of the Disaster Relief Fund Advisory

Committee (DRFAC) of Hong Kong

SAR Government were sympathetic

with the plight of the victims of these

disasters and approved a total of

HK$12.23 million for humanitarian

aid benefiting total of 17,500

households in these regions.

In November, the super typhoon

“Haiyan” (locally named “Yolanda”)

wreaked havoc in South-eastern

Philippines. Our local partner Kaisa

Para Sa Kaunlaran (KAISA) promptly

mounted initial relief efforts in Iloilo

and Leyte, and made an appeal to

Amity HK based on their assessment

of the situation. We were able to fork

out $70,000 immediately to support

and approved a sum of $2.057 million

for Amity to provide relief food and

non-food goods to 5,000 families.

The Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club

also donated $180,000 to support our

rehabilitation programmes. Two Amity

common practice in Guizhou. Our

cooperation with this Rotary Club

has facilitated the implementation

of the government policy to improve

health care in remote villages.

It has been a fruitful year for our

programme to improve healthcare in

Ningxia by building village clinics in

poor rural areas. The following three

36 AMITY 2013

clinics, costing between HK$100,000 to $135,000, were completed and are

functional this year:

* Guandi Village, Shikong Township, Zhongning County

* Wuqiao Village, Xinbao Township, Zhongning County

* Guaerqu Village, Shangqiao Township, Wuzhong City

University for Girls ProjectIn June 2013, 29 sponsored girl students finished their four-year degree

courses. Many donors who attended the ceremony in Guizhou were impressed

with how these graduates had matured from their former shy, inhibited and

insecure self. Worthy of mention was the number of alumni of this programme

returning to assist in the proceedings. Their “sunshine”, self-assured presence

was further evidence of the efficacy of the programme.

Proud graduates in University for Girls Project

The personal development element

in the U for Girls programme had

taken a big leap forward last year as

other experts and consultants joined

the ranks of volunteers. They have

brought their experience in human

resources development to bear on

our project, further strengthening

the curriculum to benefit the 112

girls included in the project. We owe

much to the Working Group under

the leadership of Mrs S.H. Yu, who

have brought new ideas, donations

and human resources to fortify the

programme.

School Rebuilding ProjectThe needs of students in remote

areas have been a matter of concern,

prompting the relaxation of the policy

to close smaller “teaching points”

and cluster all the school-age children

in county seats’ Central Schools.

Thus, there is still a huge number

of students studying in dilapidated

and even unsafe school buildings

with poor education facilities. With

strong backing from some donors, we

were able to build the following three

schools at roughly $500,000 each last

year:

* Jiaozhi Primary School, Yanshan

County, Yunnan

* Zhongzui Village Primary School,

Ziyang City, Sichuan

* Chalin Village Primary School,

Yongshun County, Hunan

Donors who had the opportunity to

visit these schools were pleased to

parents and are looking forward to the time when their children would not

have to suffer the elements while studying:

Action e 10000 - Rural Orphan Fostering ProjectThe number of orphans sponsored by Hong Kong people last year rose moderately to 112. The assistance ensured that

these children are properly fed, clothed and provided with school fees, stationery and medical expenses.

In recognition of their psychological needs, a summer camp was organised in Yongshun County, Hunan , as one of the

many activities undertaken by Amity for this purpose. Based on a format successfully piloted the year before, we brought 51

young volunteers from Hong Kong to run a summer camp for 80 orphans in the local area. Additionally, members from our

local partners and teachers supporting this project made up a total of over 200 participants. They spent 3 productive days

in personal development and group counselling activities. The feedback was most positive, evincing the effectiveness of the

sessions. Home visits were organised after the camp, which turned out to be heart-warming moments when the Hong Kong

HK young volunteers visiting orphans at home, Yongshun County, Hunan

HK young volunteers and local children in a joyous moment in the summer camp, Yongshun County, Hunan

volunteers were quite touched and

learnt more about the hardships these

children had to face day after day.

At the requests of donors, we also

organised two special visits, one in

April to Henan and one in December

to Sichuan. The face-to-face encounters

had left both parties with indelible

memories further enhancing the

donors’ commitment to this cause.

English Teaching ProgrammeThe School-based Training for

English teachers in Chenzhou,

Hunan, shifted to a higher gear

last year. A total of four visits were

made as detailed in the paragraphs

below.

After intensive preparations

reviewing lesson plans and previous

performance, volunteer English

consultants from Hong Kong visited

the 4 Chenzhou pilot schools in

March. Altogether, they observed

quite a few lessons. This format

of immediate de-briefing after

lessons were well received and our

advice was quickly incorporated in

subsequent lessons – a welcome sign

that the consultancy was working

effectively.

In July, 17 volunteers joined the

Amity HK's Executive Director in

conducting a oneweek course for

over 170 teachers. The focus this time

was on pedagogy, with teachers from

the pilot schools taking more central

roles. It was pleasing to see that

teachers from the pilot schools were

able to demonstrate effective lessons

based on their learning over the last

two years. City officials including the

Vice-Mayor in charge of education

and the Education Bureau Chief

were most complimentary of our

efforts, expressing their hope for our

continued support.

2013 AMITY 39

Home visits building new friendships, Chenzhou, Hunan Province

As part of the programme to

provide “international” exposure

for Chenzhou students, Amity HK

arranged for the Principal and 17

Li Po Chun United World College

students to conduct a one-week

exchange programme in the 4 pilot

schools in early November. Coming

from many continents and various

backgrounds, they were very much

of an eye-opener for the local

students who were encountering

foreigners for the first time. Aided

by English experts, the visiting

students designed very interesting

activities, powerfully engaging their

local counterparts. It was clear

from the enthusiasm displayed that

hundreds of Chenzhou students are

now more prepared to learn this

international language.

40 AMITY 2013

During late November, the full

complement of the Hong Kong

consulting team conducted a series

of seminars for the Chenzhou pilot

schools. Addressing the common

concern for the examination-

oriented curriculum, the theme

chosen was “Assessment and

Classroom Learning”. Hopefully,

participants would better

understand the importance

of reading literacy in English

proficiency.

the very trying circumstances, their

resilience, simple joys and gratitude

to our meager assistance were

most humbling, heart-warming and

brought tears to our colleagues and

volunteers.

The December edition of “Action” is

on the theme “Education”. Western

regions are still lagging behind

as China is catching up on its

modernization and hence children

and teachers there deserve our

continued support and prayers.

PublicationsThe June Edition of our half-

yearly newsletter “Action” gave

vivid portrayal of Amity’s disaster

relief work, bringing focus on the

Yaan Earthquake and accounts

of the challenges during such

humanitarian aid operations.

The aftershocks and continued

landslips on trunk routes with real

risks to life and limb were only the

backdrop accentuating the bravery

of the earthquake victims. Despite

Human ResourcesThanks to the efforts of our

partner Mission One World, Mr

Martin Lachmann from Munich

was recruited to the Amity HK.

Beginning in May, he took over the

overseas Communication Desk ,

and re-built our English website,

and assisted in the Amity Outlook

publication.

Ms. Helena Chan retired in early

2013, after many years of dedicated

service. She was replaced by Mr.

Alex Lai who joined our team

with his valuable experience in the

private sector.

Building on the success last year,

the PR Lab of Hong Kong CityU has

again sent us two interns to work

in the Amity HK. The two were

actively involved in the preparation

work for the Walk for Living Water

2014, while learning the ropes in a

busy NGO.

Volunteers like Mr. Leo LU Kwong

Fai and Mr. Philip LAM continued

to be staunch supporters of our

work. Mr LU has been nick-named

“Mountain Dog” because of his

daring exploits in rugged terrains in

identifying dilapidated schools and

finding donors who are prepared to

fund the reconstruction. His efforts

resulted in enough money raised last

year to support the school-building

project in Chalin Village in Hunan,

benefiting many school children.

Overseas LiaisonWith a view to updating our

European partners about our recent

development, Amity HK's Executive

Director visited Germany and the

United Kingdom during Autumn. In

Hamburg, Berlin, Neuendettelsau,

and Wuppertal, a wide range of

issues were explored with our

partners NMZ, EMW, MEW and

UEM. It was most enlightening to

hear about the history, development

and recent foci of their services in

Advocacy, Diaconia, Development

and Evangelism. A minor discovery

was made when an interview with

the curator of the museum of MEW

revealed that Bishop KH Ting had

found some inspiration for Amity

from the Neuendettelsauer Mission

pioneered by Father Loehe in the

19th Century.

The visit to the Methodist Church

in London was also very useful. An

in-depth sharing session with their

leaders on Church World Relations

had established the good will for our

continued cooperation.

Another highlight of the visit was

when our local partners arranged

for the Executive Director to meet

young volunteer returnees who

had been in our Service Learning

Programme in Jiuquan and

Jiayuguan, Gansu. The young adults

talked frankly about the initial

challenges teaching in Chinese

secondary schools. But, they were

consistently reflecting how they had

come out of the whole experience

with a better understanding of the

country, the people and the culture.

More importantly, their reflections

A farewell gathering From left to right in front row: Anthony Tong, Philip Wickeri, Helena Chan, Janice Wickeri From left to right in rear row: Martin Lachmann, Winnie Tang, Iris Wong, Alex Lai, Tong Su

were powerful testimonies of

how they were developing a sense

of service to others, finding the

meaning of life and a resolve to

make a difference in this world. In

short, a thumbs up for Amity in

organising such opportunities for

young people.

The opportunity was also taken

during the trip to visit some

Chinese churches in Hamburg and

Berlin. The perspectives of overseas

Chinese Christians about their lives

in a distant land, and volunteerism

and development work in China

were most enlightening.

Way ForwardOur vision to enable more young

people to grow through serving the

needy people in China has seen

major breakthroughs in the last

year. We shall continue to strive

towards this goal through creating

opportunities for their involvement,

engagement and love in action.

Project Work

* The “Living Water” Project

has been well supported and

demonstrated its impact on

tangible support to remote

villagers without safe drinking

water and improving awareness on

personal responsibilities in water

conservation. As a core component,

the “Walk for Living Water” will

continue as our signature event

and this year it would take place on

Saturday, 13 March 2014.

* The “U for Girls” Project has

steadily grown as to attract

more enquiries and proposals

for cooperation. We are pleased

to be able to work with some

philanthropists on the possibility

of doing a similar scheme in

Nanjing as well as building a more

structured development curriculum

for the girls under our sponsorship.

* The Summer Camp is now a

regular feature of the “Orphans”

Project. Originally conceived as a

means for psychological counselling,

this summer event now embodies

a well tried out programme to help

orphans. Moreover, it provides a

window of experiential learning

for Hong Kong young people to

understand the people, culture and

challenges in China. Hence, we plan

to continue with this programme,

involving more schools, churches,

youth groups and social service

centres. In the same vein, donor

visits are going to be arranged

too, subject to there being enough

interest. This fulfils the Amity

mission to provide people-to-people

contact, who have come from vastly

different backgrounds.

* The “Clinics” project would

continue so long as there is need

for facilities in remote areas like

Ningxia. Central policy appears

to point in the direction of more

Government funding to build

hardware. Hence, we shall be

watching policy development closely

and deploy donated resources

prudently.

ConclusionAs China embarks on a road

towards further urbanisation,

forecasting some 60% urban

population in 2020, poverty in cities

is going to follow in the wake. Hong

Kong with decades of experience

combating city problems can offer

expertise to help and Amity HK

is positioning itself to provide a

conduit for such human resources

to help our Nanjing HQ carry out

Amity projects in the cities.

Meanwhile, rural issues like left-

behind children may worsen despite

a very strong push by the Central

Government to bring relief to far off

villages. The outlook therefore is the

continued or even rising needs for

various social services at the village

level. Thus, Amity HK is positioning

itself to keep a watching brief for

special needs in remote areas to see

if we could find creative, sustainable

and resource-efficient solutions.

The plan for some Green Schools

in Yunnan is something along this

line of thinking. Ultimately, how we

bring love to the needy through our

action will be the on-going challenge.
