2011 Chi Fan for Charity Beneficiaries
Beijing:
Bethel Foundation serves the blind and visually orphaned population throughout China by providing a sustainable solution for each sponsored child. The foundation provides life-changing resources, which are not offered elsewhere in the country. Bethel Foundation will use the Chi Fan for Charity grant to support one Beijing home in their “Home Sweet Home” program. When the program receives a new child, they ensure the best medical treatment, top-level foster care (the children reside in family-style houses), and a combined Western and Eastern style school curriculum. “Home Sweet Home” aims to equip each child with the skills necessary so that they may pursue advanced education and professional careers while being comfortable with the realities of the world around them.

New Hope Foundation takes physically handicapped babies under six months old and provides them with a caring and secure environment. New Hope Foundation Limited strives to offer long-term care for these babies in a close-to-normal home environment. They also seek to find the very best medical solutions for each baby’s handicap and to facilitate that treatment. New Hope Foundation Limited will use the Chi Fan for Charity grant money to supply six months of milk powder for 71 babies they care for in their Shunyi home. Funding this project ensures that New Hope Foundation Limited will be helping orphaned babies who may not get medical treatment if left in the current system.

The Chi Heng Foundation’s mission is to create a harmonious, equal, and healthy society by funding and operating projects in education and care for children and adults impacted by AIDS, AIDS prevention and anti-discrimination. Founded in 1998, the Chi Heng Foundation is a charity registered and based in Hong Kong with offices in Henan, Anhui, Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. CHF primarily focuses on paying for the children’s education and living expenses, making sure all funds are delivered directly to schools and programs by our staff. CHF does not operate orphanages or foster homes. Instead, local relatives often take in the children, allowing them to continue to grow up in their native villages. To further decrease their sense of social stigma and isolation, CHF places the children in schools that purposefully integrate the orphans with children not affected by HIV/AIDS. These efforts aim to give orphans a stronger sense of community and belonging. CHF promises a long-term commitment to helping children not only complete their education but also receive dependable, comprehensive support.
