In 2008, Mr. Cao Peng founded the "Angel Confidant Salon" for autistic children, and this team has been expanding and strengthening. 14 years of daily companionship and help have enabled these children, who were once difficult to complete their teeth and teeth, to communicate with the outside world, to learn various musical instruments, and now to be on the stage to show their progress.

Last night's 90-minute concert at the Jaguar Shanghai Symphony Concert Hall, more than 2/3 of the programs were performed by autistic children, whether it was a trumpet trio or a bass ensemble, or a string ensemble, these performances are quite difficult for ordinary people, but they are the best programs for these autistic children. They have become real protagonists on the stage, they can play beautiful melodies, they can freely play the music of life, they can play horns and trombones to express their thoughts, and they can dance jazz dance to show the enthusiasm of youth, which is called "miracle" in the mouths of many live audiences, and the concert is full of warmth and emotion.

In 2008, Shanghai Cao Peng Music Center and Shanghai Charity Foundation jointly established the "Angel Zhiyin Salon", and successively established professional teams such as "Angel Zhiyin Choir", "Brass Quintet" and "Wind Music Ensemble", and opened up "Love Classroom" and "Love Coffee", "Love Roasting", "Love Ping Pong" and other caring projects from learning to practice. Over the years, Cao Peng has led hundreds of young volunteers to insist on using music to serve autistic children and their families, helping children to step onto the international stage, participating in hundreds of concerts and competitions, and giving hope to families on the verge of despair. In 2020, Cao Peng, his family and Wanxiang Trust established the country's first caring for autism charitable trust, which is used to help autistic people in life cycle rehabilitation treatment, education and training, employment support, guardianship and care. In 2021, the Shanghai Jing'an Star Social Guardianship Service Center was established.

In order to let more and more autistic patients and their families join the team full of love and see the light of hope, "Cao Peng, a national moral model, has initiated the establishment of the Shanghai Cao Peng Public Welfare Foundation to popularize music education, care for autistic patients, and promote social harmony as its mission, and has established a one-stop service for autistic families." The Foundation has signed a contract with two strategic partners, hoping to make autism and its families get the respect and life security they deserve by carrying out child health education, scientific theory and practice research on autism rehabilitation, life care and life care for people with disabilities, volunteer training and training, etc.; form a series of brands of caring for autistic patients and benefit more autistic families; make children's health education an important part of school science, education, culture and health; let more caring enterprises and caring people give them more respect and care. Help them solve practical difficulties.
