Being in the world is a miracle.

 Why? It is because that every being is the combination of “luck” and “coincidence”.

Just like a sapling, if it wants to grow up, it has to be planted in the rooting land with appropriate temperature, gardener’s hardworking, light and heat given off by the sun, and the unexpected storm.

Nature is so powerful that any disaster can ruin the sapling. After brushing past the adventure, the sapling survives. We met in such a vast universe. It is the opportunities that create the miracle, the same as love.

 So, why not we appreciate for encountering and cherish the fate?

 With the support of all the benefactors, 109 million yuan had been raised by November 26th, 2014. More than 10,000 persons from 433 schools, 23 provinces enjoy free lunch every day.

On this Thanksgiving Day, we would like say “Thank you” to the benefactors, partners, volunteers and teachers who believe in us and support us.

As a sapling, it is because it has learned the support and enthusiasm from others that Free Lunch for Children grows up and generates its own characteristics.

We will cherish every moment we fight together and keep growing.
