It is understood that the incidence of autism in China is 0.7%, and there are more than 10 million people with autism spectrum disorders.

Xia Saili, president of the Zhejiang Democratic League Entrepreneurs Association and chairman of Saili Zhenghong Group, said that for this reason, the "Starry Sky Guardian" - public welfare action to help star children grow will hold public welfare works exhibitions, love charity auction activities, art cultivation activities, etc.
