Lanzhou, Xinhua News Agency (Reporter Wen Jie) - At around 11 a.m. on October 14, a large truck loaded with tables and chairs, cotton coats, exercise books, water heaters, and other daily necessities and school supplies slowly drove out of the Tianshui Road Expressway exit in Lanzhou City, heading towards Yushu in Qinghai.
After the Weibo post was made, it received an enthusiastic response from netizens in Lanzhou. The post was quickly widely forwarded.
This is the "Grassland Dining Table Project" initiated by Lanzhou netizens through Weibo. This event raised a batch of daily necessities and school supplies for more than 120 boarding students at a primary school in Yushu.
The small acts of kindness from netizens gathered from all over the country. A total of 72 netizens and organizations from Lanzhou, Jiuchuan, Beijing, Nanjing, and other places contributed their love to the "Grassland Dining Table Project." The project collected 32 dining tables, 128 chairs, 88 cotton coats, one water heater, and more than 1,000 exercise books.
On September 14, the netizen "Yi Xie Yi Zheng" received a call from volunteer Pan Yuqi, who had been engaged in volunteer work in Yushu for a long time. Pan Yuqi said that there were about 120 boarding students at the school where he volunteered, and they ate their three meals every day outside the tents. He wanted to help solve the problem of dining tables for the children and asked "Yi Xie Yi Zheng" to inquire about the price of tables and chairs in Lanzhou and planned to raise funds nationwide. "Leave this matter to me," "Yi Xie Yi Zheng" readily agreed. Subsequently, "Yi Xie Yi Zheng" immediately went to various markets in Lanzhou to understand the prices of dining tables and chairs. Starting from September 15, "Yi Xie Yi Zheng" began posting donation requests on Sina Weibo, naming the activity as the "Grassland Dining Table Project." In order to make netizens believe that this activity was public-spirited, "Yi Xie Yi Zheng" published his bank account under a real-name verified ID on Weibo.
It is understood that the charitable materials for the "Grassland Dining Table Project" were delivered to Yushu Batang Grassland Primary School on the morning of October 15. On October 16, the children were already eating at the new tables and chairs.
