Compassion Nayong Public Welfare is based on Nayong, a poverty-stricken area in Guizhou Province. Taking the network as the platform, it carries out various public Welfare activities to aid education. On 12/13/2016, a well-planned workshop on “Young Health Seminar” started in ShuGuan middle school, Baixing middle school, and Haizhu elementary school, which was sponsored by the Compassion Nyong Public Welfare and County Birth Control Commission Organization. There are more attendees from Shuguan Middle school than those attendanees from other schools. Two teachers provided 2 separate seminars in two different locations in 4 classes with the total 700 students who attended the seminar. After the workshop, handouts on youth health were distributed as donation from Zhuhai Dishui Water Foundation. Those handouts would help inform the students on the details relating to their health after school. Those volunteers and school teachers introduced how to use feminine products on site as preparation before class. Volunteers in groups distributed the feminine products to students and felt very warm hearted when they saw students smile shyly. It is very important to teach those youth in their teen age to learn how to handle puberty properly. The right knowledge should help them to set correct outlook towards the world and life. This activity truly benefits them all.
In some cases, their personalities shine even brighter than their peers from normal households. Today we are writing about Xue Er, a strong, optimistic child and who loves to laugh and is just a ray of sunshine. Xue Er is 13 years old and currently in sixth grade. Her father passed away before Xue Er’s birth, and her mother remarried not long after giving birth, only to leave and never come back. Xue er now lives with her grandparents; pictured is their family home. Because the road in front of the house was too muddy, volunteers were forced to park far from the house and walk there.
In early March, when spring had just begun and our volunteers visited Xue Er for the first time, there was no one at home. The neighbors generously went to summon them from the fields, and the grandma was the first to return. She said that Xue Er was carrying a sack of a farm manure and would be back as soon as she finished carrying it to the other side of the field. While we were waiting for her, we started talking about Xue Er to her grandma, who was pleased to tell us that her grandchild is smart, has good grades, is very sensible, and practices filial piety. Because her grandparents are old and their legs have become frail, most of the heavy household labor is performed by Xue Er. Today, for example, Xue Er was doing the heavy lifting while her grandparents perform the easier task of sowing corn seeds.

The children have parents, though their father works away and their mother has mental problems. They are a complete family. Ping Ping is in grade 2. His older sister, Shu Qing is in grade 5. They go to the same primary school which is far away from their home. They have to walk for about 1 hour on the mountainous roads, which did not hinder them to go to school. Shu Qing does well at school. She has a big dream. She told the social worker she wanted to study hard so that to do something good for her hometown. Ping Ping likes drawing. He wants to be a painter when he grows up. The article was written by Shu Qing. It was incredible for a rural children to write such a fancy science fiction scene. In the fiction, she is a scientist with assistant, lab in the Mars, machine dog, 6C5B mobile phone, spaceship company, etc. The social worker was surprised by her imagination. Shu Qing told us she learned a few passages about science in their Chinese text book and she also learned from TV. Apart from rich imagination, she has strong learning capacity. She is humor and has good observation. The food that the family eats every day

Her name is Le Er. The family of 4 suffer from different diseases. The poor family fell into desperation. Thanks to the support of TFish, treatment for Le Er became possible. I could not help sighing: a family cannot have happiness before the disease has been cured. According to the materials for Caring Children in Difficulty, I found most of the children were abandoned by the families due to major illness or parents’ illness. Some of the family were left with heavy debts, which led the poverty of the family. This is a girl named Xiao Qian. She is 9 and in grade 2. For half a hours staying in her family for the survey, she kept silent, standing aside and staring the social workers were writing. She was asked to take photos and she was listening to her fathers’ narration for the family situation without a word. She did not smile or showed any curious during the whole process. She seemed no interests in anything. Compassion Nayong Public Welfare is based in Nayong, a poverty-stricken area in Guizhou Province.

Weiwei is the first child we took in under Transparent Fish’s "Care for Children in Rural Areas" project. He is nine years old and is in second grade. His family’s difficulties are harder than that of other families we know. But fortunately, his mother is strong; the three siblings, although they have undergone many difficult living conditions, are still full of happiness and love under their mother's care. In March 2015, our volunteer Wang Yong visited the family for the first time. In his record, he wrote, "The difficult conditions are beyond what words can describe. They have no room to live in, and they now live in a simple tent with wooden sticks and bamboo structures with no tile. It is all covered with plastic. Where there is constant rain leaking through and no shade from the sun, this place cannot be considered home." After visiting them, we came to understand that Weiwei's father, who was suffering from jaundice and hepatitis, died in 2015, leaving his wife a sum of more than 30,000 RMB of debt and three young children. When the father was still alive, the family lived together with his uncles in several old wooden houses left by their ancestors. After his death, the old wooden house was occupied by the uncles who lived there; the orphans and the widow reluctantly moved out, with bamboo and plastic as a simple living shed now. They have been living in the shed for about a year and a half now. Compassion Nayong Public Welfare is based on Nayong, a poverty-stricken area in Guizhou Province.

On June 28th, the Nayong county in the Gui province experienced sudden heavy rainfall (flood), affecting the 244,600 people living in Nayong. As a result, 1 person went missing, 50 were trapped, 8153 hectares (1 hectare = 10,000 sq. meters) of crops were affected, 6523 hectares of land were flooded, 97 hectares of fruit tree forest was damaged, 232 livestock animals were killed, 255 houses collapsed (104 families), 944 houses were seriously damaged (530 families), and 2016 houses were damaged (937 rooms).

Nayong Loving volunteers went to the town of Shuidong and met with the local government. They assessed the disaster, discussed methods of disaster relief, and agreed to help the people in Shuidong affected by the flood. On July 2nd, 26 volunteers from different places came together in the town of Shuidong of the Nayong county in the Gui province. They brought disaster relief materials/goods donated by the One Foundation and other internet friends. They distributed the goods to those who were heavily affected by the disaster and sent them to Weibo’s care and spiritual care. In this disaster relief, we distributed 112 disaster relief kits/packages, 100 comforters, 1120 jins (1 jin is about 1.3 pounds) of vegetable oil, and 15,000 jins of rice to the people of Shuidong. We donated over 100,000 Yuan RMB in relief goods, helping over 100 families (over 400 people) After the goods were distributed, the volunteers spoke with those who suffered serious losses from the flood. They discussed the victim’s life and mental state after the disaster and encouraged them to be strong, optimistic, and positive. Their message to victims was self-reliance and hard work to recover from the disaster.

Transparent Fish Fund, who has been funding us, found out that there are kids in Nayong who have a difficult life. For instance, the father dies and after the mother remarries, they even lose contact with their mother. Some parents (either one parent or both) have court sentences to serve or remands, so the child cannot receive any care. Some work too hard and get ill (paralysis, physical disabilities, mental illnesses) and lose the ability to take care of their kids. When life gets hard for these kids, society uses its resources to cover basic needs and education. After meeting with Nayong Loving, Transparent Fish Fund decided to donate 1000 Yuan RMB in materials to these struggling kids each year. The materials include rice, cooking oil, various education materials and necessities, medical insurance, and local organic chickens (the children received chicks that could lay eggs to be sold or be sold directly when they grow older, or just be eaten) By visiting homes, we verified that the first cohort would have 68 kids receiving aid. To make it fair, we used a public open bid to find people to help buy materials for the kids. Business men who win the bid will send the materials they buy to the Nayong Loving office. Volunteers will individually pack the materials according to how many kids there are to make distribution quick and error free. Let’s look at what materials the students are receiving!
