“Xie’s Bookstore” for Underprivileged
Children in China
Mission of the Organization
This organization will be an NGO aiming at improving the education quality that
underprivileged kids receive in the rural area of China. These kids were born
in the poor family which couldn’t afford to send kids to go to schools and
oftentimes expect their children, after completing the mandatory education
dictated by the Chinese government, to come back and to farm, thus to ease the
family’s burden, even though majority of these kids are only thirteen or
fourteen years old while their urban peers continue to receive higher
education.
Therefore,
the organization intends to expand the availability of quality education to these
underprivileged children, and thusly empower them to break the shackles of
farming and enlarge their repertoire of knowledge to pursue dreams that could elevate
the society more or to work from positions that are more value-added.
Implementation of the Strategy
The
organization plans to achieve the goal by combining technological resources and
traditional educational resources, and to deliver the package in the form of
online education via tablets or computers. The technological resources will be
sourced from technological teams who have expertise in online education. Organizations
such as Sunshine Bookstore have
already showed initial intention to partner with us. Educational resources will
be sourced from Massive Online Open Course (MOOC), and our organization is in
the process to obtaining permission from universities and online MOOC hubs such
Coursera.
For
the next steps, these quality resources will be adapted to make it easier to understand
for kids in the rural area. The distribution of tablets is going to be funded and
supervised by government’s funding and social sources that care about the social
cause. In order to deliver timely updates/feedback and information, our organization
also intends to work closely with regional/local governments to improve the infrastructure
of Internet access.
Value of the Organization
The organization
will ensure the underprivileged kids receive education that is effective, and encompassing,
to help them expand horizon and realize the world is an enormous space full of
possibilities where they can pursue different career opportunities rather than
solely becoming another farmer, another shepherd, etc., thusly
truly allowing them to dare to imagine a brand-new world for themselves and their
families.
Xie’s book is
the first organization of its kinds and will make a difference in the lives of underprivileged
in the rural area, and can also be applied in urban areas where kids are not
receiving quality education.
Underprivileged kids
who yean for learning are going to be empowered to realize how to get access to
more educational resources and how much is out there to be learned. Providing children
who have the curiosity to learn with effective tools and methodologies is not
only fundamental to improve their standards of living, but also a vital approach
to mitigate wealth inequality and various social issues. The organization will
bring these kids hope and shed light in their lives, ultimately inspiring generations
to advance and grow.
