An example of charity

1. Lei Feng has never been stingy with donations.

19xx In August, Fushun, the resident, was flooded, and the traffic was ordered to fight floods. Lei Feng endured the pain of his burned hand who had just finished putting out the fire, and fought with his comrades in Shangsi Reservoir Dam for seven days and seven nights, winning the second class.

A large-scale production mobilization meeting was held in Wanghua District, with great momentum. Lei Feng went to the streets to see this scene. He took out the 200 yuan money (203 yuan in the passbook) saved in factories and troops, and ran to the office of the Party Committee of Wanghua District to donate it to make some contributions to the construction of the motherland. The comrades who take care of him can't refuse his friendship, so they have to accept half. When Liaoyang suffered the worst flood in a century, it donated 100 yuan to the people of Liaoyang.

In the case of serious natural disasters in China, he donated all his savings to national construction and disaster areas, but he was reluctant to drink a bottle of soda.

Second, Lang Lang combines music with charity.

The pianist Lang Lang has many dazzling titles, but he especially cherishes these two:

President Bush awarded him the title of "Messenger of World Peace".

In announcing the appointment, UNICEF Executive Director Bellamy said: "Lang Lang is the youngest goodwill ambassador of UNICEF. Lang Lang was invited as a goodwill ambassador because he has a unique ability to communicate with the audience and spends a lot of time and energy on classical music to increase the audience of young people. "

Lang Lang expressed deep gratitude for the title of Charity: "Music is like a language, the language of the world, which connects people together and also connects their spiritual feelings. I think the best way to get close to children is to play music for them and open their ears and hearts with music. "

Third, Cong Fei's love story.

Cong Fei, formerly known as Zhang Chong, was born in the countryside of Zhuangtai Town, Dawa County, Panjin City, Liaoning Province. He worked hard since childhood and is a famous male singer in Shenzhen. Starting from 19XX, poor children in poor mountainous areas were supported, and the number of children supported reached 178, with a total donation of 3 million yuan.

Cong Fei has become a minor celebrity in commercial performances in some cities. The appearance fee for each performance can reach 1 10,000 to 20,000 yuan. In many cases, the monthly income can reach more than100,000 yuan to support the children's tuition. However, after SARS in 2008, Cong Fei's performance opportunities dropped sharply, and his income became less and less. When paying tuition for his children, money is also tight. At that time, Cong Fei borrowed 654.38+million yuan from relatives and friends in order to pay the tuition fees for more than 100 children in time, and delivered it to the children as scheduled before the school started.

They are so selfless dedication, in order to make more people live happily, they sacrificed too much, but they have no regrets. This is Gao He, two ordinary five-star volunteers who gave their love without asking for anything in return. ...

Fourth, Cui Yongyuan's love donation.

According to Jing Yidan and other presenters, over the years, Cui Yongyuan has donated a lot of money to charities and also sponsored more than 20 students. In the large-scale TV activity My Long March, which ended at the beginning of 20XX, he also walked well and did good deeds. There is such a string of figures: along the way, the program group raised a total of charitable donations of/kloc-0.50 million yuan, helped 230 schools, built 20 new primary schools, sympathized with more than 360 old Red Army soldiers, and repaired many tombs of unknown martyrs.

Every donation, Cui Yongyuan has only one request, that is, not to make public. When asked by reporters, he always said, "I seldom do good deeds, very little." Cui Yongyuan understood the meaning of charity in this way: Doing charity is to help others and also to save yourself.

In his view, people who do charity shouldn't keep boasting. I believe they also get a lot from it, such as optimistic attitude, tolerant attitude and unyielding will, which are precious gifts when helping others. It is with this sincere and peaceful attitude that Cui Yongyuan always tries his best to maintain each other's self-esteem and reduce their psychological burden when donating money to help poor students.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) Fan Li found a way for the poor to get rich.

Fan Li was a famous politician and strategist during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. In the stories about Fan Li, his name seems to be more related to his political and military activities that helped Gou Jian, the king of Yue, fight hard for more than ten years and finally defeated Fu Cha, the king of Wu. However, Fan Li in history was actually a very rich philanthropist who spread charity.

According to Records of the Historian, after helping Gou Jian stand tall and calm down the State of Wu, he resigned and retired and traveled around the world. Fan Li is very talented in business. When he arrived in Qi, he went into business under the pseudonym of Yan Yizipi. Soon, Fan Li accumulated thousands of dollars and became the richest man in Qi. When the King of Qi knew Fan Li's talent, he worshipped him very much.

However, Fan Li, holding the photo, thought of more people living in poverty. Therefore, he gave all his wealth to the poor, resigned from his post and went to Tao Di in a cloak. Tao Di is located at the junction of Qi, Song and Wei. Fan Li thinks it is the center of the world, with convenient transportation with other countries. Trading here will definitely make you rich. Therefore, he went into business again under the pseudonym of Tao Zhugong. Sure enough, Tao Zhugong soon made a large sum of money, and his wealth was exhausted for the second time. However, he found that there are many poor people in Tao Di.

So Fan Li once again spent all his money to help the poor. It is said that Fan Li spent "three to one thousand dollars" in his 19 years of business experience. His talent makes him rich almost everywhere, but his sympathy for the poor in the world makes Fan Li donate his money every time. In addition to giving wealth, Fan Li did not forget to teach people how to make profits in business, hoping to find a way for the poor to get rich.
