On the afternoon of April 16, Dongfeng Primary School in Gongguan Town, Maonan District held the inauguration of “Ubridge Love Library” and the awarding ceremony of “Ubridge Scholarship for Teaching and Learning”. Mr. Li Lvhua, Chairman of Ubridge, was invited to participate in the donation, the unveiling of the plaque, and the awarding of prizes.
In April last year, Mr. Li Lvhua decided to continue to subsidize Dongfeng Primary School in Gongguan Town, Maonan District to improve the teaching facilities and environment in addition to the donation of the plastic track on the schoolyard and planned to remodel and renovate the outdated and poorly decorated school library. Now, after the completion of renovation and decoration, the library looks anew and is full of new and excellent children's books. The company also decided to allocate another RMB 30,000 annually from the education fund to motivate the teachers of the school to be loyal to their cause of education and persevere in spreading culture and knowledge to the countryside children. A number of outstanding teachers and students are very happy to receive the first batch of bonuses and scholarships. The donation this year totaled RMB 200,000.
At the award ceremony, Mr. Li Lvhua and other guests presented prizes and scholarships to 7 outstanding teachers and 41 outstanding students.
Ms. Zheng Dan, Secretary of the Party Branch and Principal of Dongfeng Primary School, said emotionally in her speech, “In the past two years, Guangdong Ubridge has generously donated a plastic track, a library, and scholarship funds for our students with its infinite care. This is of great significance to improve our school conditions, optimize our education environment, and stabilize and motivate our teachers. The donation not only brought new vitality into our school library, but also provided strong support for our education. This generous donation reflects the company's social responsibility and commitment, and demonstrates its deep understanding and firm support for the development of education. This support is a trust and encouragement to our school, and an incentive and encouragement to our teachers and students.”

Mr. Ling Zhenyu, Deputy Director of the Education Bureau of Maonan District, said in his speech, “Today we gather together to witness this solemn and joyful moment. On behalf of the Education Bureau of Maonan District, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Guangdong Ubridge. Ubridge's selfless donation will warm the young hearts and nourish their pure souls. Your selfless donation will enable the children to obtain more knowledge and strength, nourish the motherland's flowers to bloom more splendidly. The long-term support shows great affection towards each other; the endless kindness demonstrates genuine commitment to education.
Today, this unforgettable scene will also become the most colorful and magnificent chapter in the history of love donation to the education of Maonan. The completion of the library is not only the establishment of a physical space, but also an important milestone in the development of our education. It symbolizes our respect for knowledge, our commitment to education, and our expectation for the children's future. It will become a paradise for teachers and students of Dongfeng Primary School to explore knowledge and enlightenment, and an important position for us to pass on our culture and cultivate talents.”
(Mr. Lin Zhenyu, Deputy Director of Education Bureau of Maonan District, in his speech)
Chairman Mr. Li Lvhua said in his invited speech, “‘Education is a fundamental task crucial for generations to come’. Every parent hopes that his/her children can receive a good education and have a good learning and growing environment. However, due to the problems of geographical location and resource distribution, there are still some differences between rural education and urban education. The teaching facilities, teaching environment, and faculty of rural schools are especially different from those of urban schools. I have been paying attention to the development of Dongfeng Primary School, and have been providing some support and help as much as possible, hoping that my own modest efforts can make this rural school become more and more beautiful, that children can run more joyfully and grow more happily in the schoolyard, so that they can be happy to learn and develop good learning habits. I hope to enable them to read more extracurricular books to broaden their perspectives and enrich their spiritual world. I hope that they can receive a ‘small gift’ every June 1st Children's Day...
And I would like to take this opportunity to say ‘Thank you for your hard work’ to the teachers who ‘care about rural education and undertake the mission of teaching’. With a meager salary, loyalty, and love for education, you ‘light up the lives of others by burning out yourselves’. This kind of professional spirit of spreading culture and knowledge for children in the countryside deserves the respect of all people in the whole society! Ubridge will continue to offer you incentives, so that teachers will love this profession more and teach with more passion!”
(Ubridge Chairman Mr. Li Lvhua in his speech)
