What are the key words that people insist on in their lives? In Tianjin, a female worker named Wang Ya gave her answer, that is, dedication.
Wang Ya, an ordinary retired female worker at State Grid Tianjin Electric Power, died of illness on February 16, 2019. Since donating 100 yuan to the Hope Project in 1989, her life has been closely linked to the donation of funds for education, and this persistence is thirty years.

In March 2018, Wang Ya was diagnosed with advanced pancreatic cancer, and in the last days of her life, she chose to give up treatment and donated the treatment fee and the only real estate to the poor students she was most concerned about.

Wang Ya was unmarried and childless, but the children she sponsored had long since become unrelated relatives. Wang Ya did not give herself anything, only 200 yuan a month to live, the most valuable thing in the family is a 34-inch TV set, the money saved is used on poor students, and even the remains are donated to the cause of medicine. But Wang Ya has given a lot to this world, and her precious love, like scattered stars, is emitting a warm light on the children.

I haven't told you yet, now that I'm a graduate student, I remember that you used to encourage me to go to graduate school, and I think I didn't break my word, I did, and you'll be happy for me when you hear the news, right? Please rest assured, in the future, I will listen to your words well, be down-to-earth, try to make myself confident, bravely take on the responsibilities that I should bear, and be a useful person to society and finally want to say a word to you. Thank you Aunt Wangya.
Xu Rui, a student at Tianjin University of Commerce: Grandma Wang Ya, this year, I am about to graduate from college, and I decided to return to my hometown of Gulang County, Gansu Province, to become a grassroots civil servant. I still remember when we first met, you told me that I wanted to do something for my hometown and contribute more to society, and I always kept it in mind. I studied hard and passed the judicial exam, and every day, I ran on the road to chasing my dreams. Meeting you made me understand what is love without boundaries. Although you have been away from us for more than three years I hope you can see that I have become a better person and will always be grateful and give back to the community.
If the real beginning of death is forgotten, then Wang Ya may never leave. There are many people who remember her, miss her, and become her.
The volunteer service team named after her in Wang Ya's unit before she died sent love to the campus and to orphans and disabled children, and has served more than 8,000 people. She could not rest assured of the children's dreams of study, and someone continued to protect her. (Reporter Yang Yu, Han Ruxu)
