Chapter 453: Chapter 369 Huaxia Little Angel Charity Foundation (Please Subscribe!)_1
After a month of approval process, the charity foundation named ’Huaxia Little Angel’ had completed all necessary formalities and was officially established. Even the headquarters of the foundation was given rent-free by the state. Although it wasn’t luxurious, being merely a three-storey main building and a two-storey annex with a big yard, the décor was rather dated. But since it was a charity foundation, and not a show of wealth, there was no need for lavish decorations or a prime location.
This month, the approval process had been expedited.
Meanwhile, the Command Room had also completed the recruitment for the headquarters and all provincial branches and selected the office sites. As it was a charity foundation, the local governments of each provincial capital provided office spaces for free.
No freebies are unacceptable.
The bigwigs of each province had heard about the purpose and business scope of this charity foundation. With the strong support from the state and the noble cause of doing good deeds, there really wasn’t much to discuss.
Since everything was sorted out,
it was time for the foundation to play its role.
The next day.
Beijing.
Northwest of Haidian District.
In front of a building with a black-on-white signboard reading ’Huaxia Little Angel Charity Foundation’.
A middle-aged man wearing glasses stood at the entrance, as people trickled in and a receptionist at the entrance guided them in.
The middle-aged man’s name was Bai Fei, 42 years old. Previously, he was a retired army officer. After working in a government unit for three years, he ventured into the business sector, and hit the jackpot. After several years hustling, he became a big company owner. Fifteen years ago, his son, not even one year old, suffered from cerebral palsy. He futilely sought treatment everywhere and eventually lost his son to a common cold. His wife, devastated from grief, died from a heart disease ten years ago.
Having lost his wife and child, the severely heartbroken Bai Bai contemplated on his life purpose. He sold his company and donated his earnings of over 8 million RMB, helping many orphans suffering from severe illnesses. During that time, he witnessed too many pitiful children. Gradually, he found a mission in life - helping these children overcome their diseases. Even if they couldn’t recover, he would do his utmost to keep them happy.
So, for the next decade, he traveled around helping orphaned children burdened with illnesses. The initial 8 million RMB were expended long ago. So, he worked on the side to earn money while caring for these parentless children. Fortunately, others learned about his endeavours and many kind-hearted people donated some money. However, compared to the massive medical expenses, Bai Fei felt powerless.
No meal is cooked without ingredients.
Over the years, Bai Fei had witnessed countless children passing away due to lack of money for treatment. He never gave up, instead, it strengthened his determination to devote his life to this mission.
Just two weeks ago.
He received a phone call.
He still remembered the content of the call to this day.
That day, he had just returned home after selling his blood, looking a bit pale. He was boiling an egg laid by a home-raised chicken – a treat he would allow himself every time after selling blood. The rest of the eggs, he donated them all to the orphanage.
His mobile phone was a gift from a sympathetic shopkeeper, who topped up his account every month as well. Each time he received the top-up, he felt encouraged by the fact that love was everywhere in the world, assuring him that what he was doing was right.
"Mr. Bai Fei, I have a job that involves helping children. Do you think you’d be interested?"
"A job?"
"Yes, a job. We’ve heard of your deeds, Mr. Bai Fei, and we admire you. This is a charity foundation funded by the state that is about to be established. It is planned to help children and we want to hire you as the president for a tenure of three years."
"Are you kidding me? The state’s charity foundation, how could I be appointed as the president?" Bai Fei couldn’t believe it.
"Mr. Bai Fei, there are no benefits for us in lying to you. In half a month at most, you should receive confirmation. Whether you want to join is up to you."
"Really? Which children do you help? Those poor ones in the mountainous areas?"
"No, the current scope of operations of this charity foundation is nationwide. We focus primarily on helping orphans under 15 years old who suffer from severe diseases by covering their full medical expenses. We might expand our scope only when we have more funds."
Bai Fei was shocked, "Covering full medical expenses? How... how is that possible? Where do you get your funds?" Isn’t this promise too grand, covering full medical expenses? Do you know how much that will cost?
"Mr. Bai Fei, you don’t need to worry about the funding now, that will be your responsibility in the future."
"Alright, I agree. When and where do I start?" Bai Fei agreed, holding on to a glimmer of hope. Not that he was naïve, but he was willing to try anything if there was a chance to help more children. At over forty years old, what was there for him to be deceived about? Besides, if he was deceived, so be it. He didn’t value his own life that much anyway.
"The start date and location will be confirmed soon. We will notify you. "
"Alright, I hope you are not deceiving me. Or else, I won’t let you off."
"Alright, goodbye, Mr. Bai Fei."
Bai Fei, who had just hung up the phone, still couldn’t believe it. Even as he stood in front of the foundation’s entrance, he felt it was all surreal.
Three days ago.
He noticed a piece of news - a charity foundation quietly established. There wasn’t much publicity, but that was the ’People’s Daily’, how could it publish a fake news?
And the next day,
he received a message asking him to report to work today. Therefore, the skeptical Bai Fei arrived at the doors of the building.
