‘To work for commonweal with creative ideas, use the market system to work for the commonweal of the society’. ---This is what I learned form years of work for commonweal. To work for commonweal is not only the responsibility of the government and NGOs. Every citizen should form a concept of responsibility in mind.

The success of ‘one book program lies in that it does not preach salvation like other commonweal programs do. The program emphasizes share and communication. It emphasizes educating next generation with an attitude of equality. I believe that many enterprises and city people will take part in the program, because it is the responsibility of all of us to care for the next generation. I am honored to be able to work for this program. I am happy because I share.

Books can bring knowledge to children, and love can bring hope to children. We donate a book hoping that these children can learn knowledge from it. We give our love hoping that these kids can feel the warmth of it from all around the China. I hope that by working for ‘one book program’, I can impart knowledge to children, hand over them love, and help them learn the spirit of share.

Although I am in America, I appreciate ‘one book program’ as you do in China. I owe a lot to books for my achievement. Books have been my buddies since I was a little child. I remember that during the year when my parents worked abroad, books were all that accompanied me. It taught me self-reliance and endeavor. I hope that more kids can have books to read and can learn to cherish them. I also hope that more people will take part in this ‘one book program’.

Every day, I receive friends and visitors from all over the world, during which I strongly feel the fascination of Chinese culture. Chinese civilization has attracted people from both developed and developing countries. Tradition and quintessence of Chinese civilization couldn’t be lost, therefore, we need to direct the next generation. Supporting ‘ one book program will help to continue Chinese tradition and culture.

I like children. I joined in the program as soon as I heard its foundation. I would like to read with children and feel the peace of it. I would like to play with kids, which will bring back my childhood. I want to communicate with kids, as if I am back to the years that I am growing.
