On 26 August 2022, to mark the fifth anniversary of the “Heart for Life - Bethune · Cardiac Surgery Charity Project”, volunteer representatives of the 3TREES Charitable Foundation and its charity partner Bethune Charitable Foundation held a special activity with the theme of “A Caring Heart for Children’s Health” in Yinchuan, Ningxia. They joined the local children in a charity walk to promote the low-carbon lifestyle, spread the power of love, and give better protection for children’s health. During the event, more than 80 people participated in the event, including volunteer representatives of the 3TREES Charitable Foundation, Tian Xiaoli, Vice Chairman and Secretary General of the Bethune Charitable Foundation, Professor Weng Guoxing, Chairman of the Cardiac Surgery Expert Committee of the Bethune Charitable Foundation and Director of the Second Division of the Cardiovascular Surgery Department at Fujian Provincial Hospital, volunteer experts from Fujian Provincial Hospital, as well as the children and parents who have benefited from the project.

Since May this year, 3TREES and the Bethune Charitable Foundation, as long-term charity partners, have jointly planned the project “Toward a New Horizon - Photo Exhibition on Children’s Health”. With the strong support of fellow charity organizations and related institutions and continuous media coverage, the project has received nearly 1,000 pieces of children’s artworks on the theme of public welfare. In June this year, the 3D virtual gallery of “Toward a New Horizon - Photo Exhibition on Children’s Health” was officially launched, and more than 300 children’s artworks on six major themes were displayed. On 23 August, the first stop of the touring exhibition “Toward a New Horizon - Photo Exhibitions on Children’s Health” was opened in the Gangjian Art Center at Beijing’s 798 Art District. The week-long offline exhibition expressed children’s aspirations for a healthy and beautiful life, their praise for the heroes of the times, their imagination and sharing of love, and their dream for an exciting future.  

The year 2022 marks the fourth year of the 3TREES Charitable Foundation’s partnership with the “Heart for Life - Bethune · Cardiac Surgery Charity Project” of the Bethune Charitable Foundation. To date, 3TREES has supported some 130 patients with congenital and acquired heart diseases in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, Fujian Province and Jiangxi Province. This year, we are once again partnering with the Bethune Charitable Foundation, and, with the support of the medical team led by Professor Weng Guoxing, Chairman of the Cardiac Surgery Expert Committee of the Bethune Charitable Foundation and Director of the Second Division of the Cardiovascular Surgery Department at Fujian Provincial Hospital, showing our care for children’s health through the “Heart for Life” project. By providing timely treatment for patients with financial difficulties in Fujian Province and helping them improve their quality of life, regain a healthy heart and live a better life, 3TREES is contributing its share to the cause of poverty eradication and common prosperity through its “acts of kindness”.

Since its establishment in 2018, the 3TREES Charitable Foundation has been committed to implementing the CSR vision of “respecting nature and caring for compatriots” proposed by Mr. Hong Jie, Chairman of 3TREES, and building an open platform for public benefit. This year, we continue to partner with the Bethune Charitable Foundation to share with the public the “healthy and beautiful life” in the eyes of children, and give expression to the power of life. We hope and call on more caring enterprises and people to join us in mobilizing public support for children’s health, spreading the values of truthfulness, kindness and beauty, and contributing positive energy and force for good to the society.

Life is wonderful because of love. Join 3TREES in creating a beautiful life!
