申城学生为失踪儿童家庭募集善款   2016-05-30

 

ABOUT 100 local high school students raised more than 61,000 yuan (US$9,300) yesterday to help families with missing children.

"From news reports, we got to know that parents with children abducted or lost usually stop work to look for them all over the country and live in poverty without incomes," Wang Yinying, a senior student at Weiyu High School, told Shanghai Daily. "We hope to give them as much help as we can," she said.

The students spent about three months organizing and promoting the event with sponsorship from Vision Overseas, a foreign study consultation company, and staged a charity bazaar and performances at the Wanda Reign Hotel in the Bund area yesterday afternoon.
