2007/3/22 Artist S.H.E China Airlines and artist S.H.E visited street children in Kolkata to help poor children take off their dreams and fly with love. China Airlines and World Vision jointly promoted the "Dreams Take Off, Fly with Love" care action, March 13

On the 17th, China Airlines and artist S.H.E were invited by World Vision Taiwan to go to Calcutta, India, to visit local street children and slum families. China Airlines Chairman Wei Xingxiong and S.H.E, who set foot on the streets of Indian slums for the first time, were both impressed by the poverty they saw.

The scene was shocking, but also deeply moved by the changes that World Vision has made for these poor children.

`In the shelter center, I saw the hope of children. Wei Xingxiong, chairman of China Airlines, said: "Originally, my colleagues in the marketing department suggested that I come to India. I was a little hesitant because I was really busy, but I came here in person to see the world outlook.

I'm very touched by how they take care of street children. I'm even more grateful for the 50 children in the care center here. They have the opportunity to stay away from the streets and come here to receive education, go to school, learn skills, and return to society when they grow up. It's really very rewarding.

China Airlines is honored to participate in such work. We take from society and use it for society. We will continue to participate and even expand in the future. I saw their computer classroom and found that there was only one computer for 50 children.

I think China Airlines has a lot of second-hand computers that are obsolete and are very good. We can donate them and transport them to them on China Airlines aircraft, so that they can learn a skill and make a living in the future. China Airlines is now cooperating with manufacturers through in-flight product sales*.

**With the donation, we hope to do our best to help World Vision continue its work. "Ranaghat (Ranaghat) Street Children Reception Center, 2.5 hours' drive from the center of Kolkata, currently houses 50 girls aged 4-13.

Mr. Tapan Mandal, the deputy executive secretary in charge of this shelter, said: "These children were still living on the streets two years ago, but after the visit of Stefanie Sun, the spokesperson of World Vision Taiwan, they saw the need and with the help of Taiwan

With the establishment of this shelter, the biggest dream for these children is to live in a good house. Now this dream has come true. Going to school is also a dream for them, but living here, this dream has also come true.

Now they are able to go to school, and their academic performance is even better than that of children from ordinary families. "In the care center for homeless children, S.H.E and the children happily sang and danced. The song "Persian Cat" made the children very happy and competed for sex.

After dancing and singing, I was still not satisfied, and even pulled S.H.E to do it again.

The children took the initiative to take the three of them to the slide, swing, and visit the garden full of vegetables and fruits. They enthusiastically introduced them to all the fun places in the garden, including the pool, the boat, and the duck.

They visited the dormitory room, their own beds, and sang and danced along the way. It can be seen that the children were really happy to live in this place.

Hebe said: "Coming to India really opened my eyes. It was like entering another world. As soon as we stepped out of the airport, we were begged the first second. The poverty here is really unimaginable." But with the help of the World Vision shelter center, many people have been able to beg for money.

Children can be taken off the streets.

Selina said, "The children here are completely different from the children on the street, because they have smiles on their faces. When they get along with us, they are eager to hug us and always want to hold our hands...".

Ella on the side also rushed to say: "Yes! And they have to hold hands tightly! Rushing to share everything with us..." "Even if they can't hold hands, they are still very happy, which means that this center is really successful!" Selina added

explain.

Hebe also said: "They love each other very much." Ella added: "It's like the three of us, coming from different backgrounds, but taking care of each other. I saw that the older one will also take care of the younger one. Here I feel

They are very happy and happy. I hope more children can receive such care. "The homes on the street seem to be in a garbage dump, which is unbearable. After seeing the shelter center, the group also visited the shelter center in Paro.

(Paro) home.

The blind mother is still begging in front of the theater. When the World Vision team arrived at Paro’s mother’s residence, they were frightened by the pile of tarps and rags collected in front of them. Selina exclaimed: “It’s incredible!

I thought it was just a garbage dump, but I didn't expect it to be a place where people live. It's Paro's mother's home. I wonder how many "homes" there are like this? Although I live in a place like this, Paro's mother said,

"I was very sad after my daughter left me, but I knew this was the best arrangement for my daughter, because only in the shelter center in Paro can she be fed, clothed, warm, and go to school." S.H.E feels so sorry for the people here.

A hard life, Ella said, "I heard the president say at the dinner table that there are 1 billion people in the world living in such poverty. For the first time in my life... I couldn't swallow a piece of rice in my chest. I felt sad, but

Don't dare to shed tears in front of them... Maybe we can give them a little help, at least let them have three meals to eat, their children can receive education, and their lives can improve a little bit.
