Lift up a better future for children

The smiles of ethnic minority children in short video footage

"Spring buds bloom, achieve girls' dreams" "Life is supreme, protect children's well-being"... Recently, the China Children and Teenagers Foundation released a series of short videos on the 40th anniversary of the founding of the Association, which recorded the unforgettable years of building dreams, chasing dreams and realizing dreams with children in the past 40 years from the perspectives of children's education and growth, health and rescue, safety and rescue, care for left-behind and distressed children, family education and family style advocacy.

In the video, the children's happiness after planting the seeds of their dreams, their tenacious will to fight for the future, as well as the innocent smiles in daily life and the spirit after entering the university have infected many viewers. "Children are the flowers of the motherland, the future of the country, the hope of the nation, come on!" The future of the children is worth looking forward to, and thanks to the help of THE UNICEF!" Netizens have left messages.

"The Spring Bud Project gave me the opportunity to carry my schoolbag to school and grow into a doctor. From remote rural areas to higher education institutions, learning intangible cultural heritage and traditional skills, to broadening horizons around the world..." Recalls Lan Zhilin, the first female doctor of the Hongyao ethnic group in Rongshui Miao Autonomous County, Guangxi.

In the series of short videos, a short video titled "Spring Bud Blooms, Achieves Girls' Dreams" shows the public the "Spring Bud Project", a charity project dedicated to helping girls who have dropped out of school return to school. Born in 1989, this program has helped 3.86 million girls to study or master a skill for more than 30 years, from financial support to caring for the heart, so that the "flower buds" not only get rid of material scarcity, but also have the courage to be confident and self-reliant. Children have gone further and started a more exciting life.

How do you know the family, society and the country? The short video of "Li De Shu Ren, Cultivating New People of the Times" vividly records these warm actions - the establishment of a new parent college, the construction of a new media family education platform, to provide parents with guidance and answer puzzles. In the hearts of children, "home" represents a series of beautiful words such as love, trust, reunion, health, happiness, etc. Only by passing on the good family style can the family play a good role in the education of the first school in life.

These short videos record the 40-year ups and downs of the China Children and Teenagers Foundation's anchored development direction of prioritizing the development of poor and vulnerable children and serving the healthy growth of children. The smiles of the children in the short video let more people see that when the care of all walks of life gathers on the road of health, the road to learning and the road to becoming a talent, it will better help the next generation to thrive and embrace the future.
