As the Year of the Snake begins, we reflect on the past year — a journey of learning, collaboration, innovation, and success. We want to take a moment to celebrate the milestones we achieved in 2024.
In 2024, for the 19th year in a row, we have helped disadvantaged students in China to improve their English proficiency. Throughout the year, our online English interventions reached an impressive total of 4,088 students located in 13 Chinese provinces: Shanghai, Hunan, Ningxia, Henan, Hubei, Jiangxi, Fujian, Yunnan, Gansu, Anhui, Guangdong, Guangxi, and Shaanxi. We recruited and trained more than 500 volunteers to deliver to them an impressive total of 3,541 English lessons.
Our curriculum centred around using interactive activities, stories, picture books, and songs to enable students to practice vocabulary, sentences, and dialogues. Many learning games were also added to each class to make the students’ language learning more colourful so they could more confidently use English to express themselves.
We sincerely want to thank all of you, our volunteers, donors, and other supporters. We need your support more than ever to keep our programs running sustainably in 2025.
We wish everyone good health, good luck, and much happiness! We look forward to working with you in the Year of the Snake!
