Words from OCP

My dearest friends,

China, China, China.

When you hear about China, what will you think of?

A rising power from the East?

A mysterious ancient country?

An incredible place where miracles happen in daily life?

They are all corret, but they are not what YOU feel about China.

"You will never know if you don't live it."

In our project, "Dare to Dream", you will experience the daily life

in China and get to know here. Instead of a teacher, I would like to

call you a dream maker or a change maker. You will find how much

positive influence you can make on these lovely children and there

are many things we need to care about, many things to change.

"To be inspired is great."

"To inspire is incredible."

Don't wait for changes, strive for it. My honor,

Chelsea

City introduction

Nanjing is the capital of Jiangsu province, and it is also an important cultural and educational center. The Chinese often refer to Nanjing as "Jinling" and "Stone City", while some foreigners know it as "Nanking".

Visitors to Nanjing will be impressed by the city's well-preserved traditional architecture and historical sights. Parts of the original city walls and city gates are still intact, a feature which sets Nanjing apart from most ancient Chinese cities.

Taigu County is located in Jinzhong city, Shanxi Province. Is in the center of Shanxi. As witnesses of the prosperity of these days, many ancient buildings stand by avenues and alleys, which makes the small town even more charming and mysterious. Taigu is also known as "Drought Dock","Little Beijing","Golden Taigu" and "The Wall Street in China". Today, Taigu is the educational center of Jinzhong because people there attach great importance to education. But compared with other counties nearby, it still lacks coal and money. There are some rural areas in Taigu that are still in poverty and children there need your help to get more knowledge about the world.
