"Good ball!" "Smash!" On the playground of No. 2 Middle School in Fudian Town, Yanshi City, teachers and students were holding their badminton rackets, participating in a unique open badminton competition.
The winter snow had just melted, leaving the air still cold, but the warmth of giving brought joy to the countryside on this spring day. The other day, the China Foundation for Poverty Alleviation (CFPA) and Li Ning Sports Goods Company held a grand ceremony at No. 2 Middle School in Fudian Town to donate badminton rackets to old revolutionary base areas in Yanshi. Xikouzi Village where Fudian No. 2 Middle School is located and its surrounding areas belong to the old revolutionary base areas. There are 29 administrative villages within its jurisdiction, covering an area of 1.2 million square meters. Due to its remote location, insufficient teaching staff, and lack of educational facilities, the learning and living conditions for the students here are relatively backward.
The CFPA has entered the old revolutionary base areas, donating 400 pairs of badminton rackets worth about 10,000 yuan to the teachers and students of schools in these areas. Eighteen schools received donations, including those in Fudian Town and Gou Shi Town in our city. This donation campaign not only solved the practical difficulties faced by students in their studies and lives but also made them feel the warmth of the socialist family.
After the donation was completed, the leaders of the CFPA and the Yanshi City Old Revolutionary Base Areas Promotion Committee also visited an exhibition of revolutionary paintings from the old areas.
