Chapter 204 Xinghai Group - Jiao Tong University Students Return to their Hometowns Education Charity Activities
The next day, January 4, 1993.
The students of Shencheng Jiaotong University left the campus with large bags and small bags, while the students in the remote mountainous areas watched them leave with envy.
Many seniors have not been home once since their freshman year, and there is no phone in the village, so they can only write back to their parents to tell their parents how the family is doing.
No matter how poor the family is, who doesn't want to go home and reunite with their families, but the helplessness and cruelty of reality have to make them realize the facts, even eating is a problem, where is the fare to return.
In the morning, Fang Bai made a phone call to the principal to visit and explain his intentions.
After Weng Lie learned that Fang Bai planned to donate 5 million yuan for educational charity, and asked Jiao Tong University students to implement it, he was very shocked, and immediately summoned the school leaders to the school conference room and waited for Fang Bai to arrive.
Although the money is not donated directly to Jiao Tong University, it is a good thing for the students of Jiao Tong University, and Jiao Tong University can also win a good reputation.
5 million yuan, this is not a trivial matter, and this is only the first year's donation, as Xinghai Group grows, the more you donate, the more Jiaoda will benefit one day.
"Headmaster, Fang Bai really plans to donate five million yuan, this is not a small amount." A vice-principal was surprised, this is all a holiday, the principal will not be mistaken.
"That's what he called me and I confirmed, and it's already being implemented in his class." Principal Weng Liele said diligently.
"Five million yuan is a huge amount of money for us, and it is nothing to Fang Bai, who said in an interview with the media last year about education and charity, and it was also in the news, and now he wants to implement it."
"Fang Bai is on the way, wait for him to come over and ask for details."
Several school leaders smiled and discussed, and after waiting for about ten minutes, Fang Bai was late, and saw that several school leaders had arrived, sitting in the seat opposite the principal, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "Let the leaders wait for a long time." ”
"We just came over and we talked for a while. This matter is very important to Jiaotong University, so I think it is necessary to convene all the school leaders to discuss it, what do you think, Mr. Fang? The headmaster motioned for Fang Bai to sit down.
The principal's secretary poured hot tea for Fang Bai, and then sat back in his seat.
Fang Bai took a sip of hot tea, moistened his chapped lips, and said lightly: "It is a social responsibility for enterprises to do charity, and Xinghai Group made a good profit last year, so it plans to donate five million yuan for education and charity and give back to the society."
I've thought about various implementation methods before, but I feel that some charities are not doing as well as they want, and they are not open and transparent, and if these five million yuan are donated at will, how many do you think can really fall into the hands of poor students? ”
Fang Bai's rhetorical question directly poked at the current corruption status quo and silenced the school leaders present.
The principal smiled bitterly: "Mr. Fang is right, there are indeed problems in the management of individual charities, resulting in the inability of charitable funds to be effectively used for educational charity.
Not only social charities, but we, as institutions, are actually facing similar problems.
So, I think we need a more transparent and effective mechanism to ensure that the money actually goes to the students who need it. ”
Fang Bai nodded and continued, "I agree with the principal.
I think that with this 5 million yuan, we can set up a special education charity foundation, which will be jointly managed by schools and enterprises.
Through the establishment of a strict audit mechanism and open and transparent reports on the use of funds, we ensure that the funds can be used accurately and timely for the education of poor students.
Therefore, the 5 million yuan, in addition to 1% of the management fee, is intended to be divided into 10,000 yuan per piece, and a poor student of Jiaotong University is responsible for the implementation, and these students are more familiar with the situation in their hometown.
First, these students want to go home, but they can't go back to their wallets, and they are reluctant to spend money to go back.
Second, for these hometowns, it is a good educational promotion to see college students come back to donate to their hometowns.
In the process of purchasing materials and implementing charity, there will be a lot of communication and organization activities, which is also a very good practice for Jiao Tong students.
Third, implementation is more direct. ”
1 per cent of the overhead costs, or $50,000, is far enough to cover the salaries of these staff.
When the school leaders heard this, they were finally a little more relaxed, or they would have to pay for it from the school, and they had to admit that Fang Bai, a young man, understood the world.
After Fang Bai finished speaking, a school leader asked: "Mr. Fang, aren't you worried about the students embezzling this 10,000 yuan, after all, this is not a small amount of money?" I'll ask casually, nothing else, haha. ”
Fang Bai said that it was nothing, and said solemnly: "I have this concern, not every student can be blind to money and have no greed.
I believe in the character of most Jiao Tong University students!
Of course, even if I am greedy, I admit it.
As long as it's not all in my own pocket, for example, I can invest more than half of it in local education, I think it's good.
If we refuse to donate because we are worried that individual students may be corrupt, then we will lose trust and support for other students.
Even if a small part of the money is embezzled, most of the money will still be used for educational charity, which is the real purpose, not for fear of corruption.
What the students do, such as how much material they have purchased and how much money they donate, it is best to get the seal of the local government or village committee to confirm it, of course, the situation may be much more complicated than what I am currently saying, as long as the students have a clear conscience, we will hand over the final say to the students. ”
The money he donated himself, he calculated it himself, and it was not the turn of others to point fingers.
In the process of implementation, these students will definitely encounter some obstacles, such as the village committee or the local government wants to be greedy for part of the sign, so it doesn't matter whether they sign or not.
Other school leaders also expressed their approval and support, believing that Fangbai's cooperation model can indeed effectively solve the current problems of philanthropy, so that the funds can be used for the education of poor students in a more targeted manner.
They have expressed their willingness to invest their resources and strength to jointly promote the development of education and philanthropy, which is also a good thing for SJTU.
Under Fang Bai's proposal, the school and the enterprise reached a cooperation intention, and decided to set up the "Xinghai Group-Jiao Tong University Students Returning Home Education Charity Activity" in these two days, and Xinghai Group donated at least 5 million yuan every year to make Jiao Tong University responsible.
If he donates more in the future, Fang Bai will cooperate with other colleges and universities to let college students be responsible for popularization.
In this way, Fang Bai's personal charitable foundation only needs a small number of people to be responsible.
If you let your foundation implement it, it will be very difficult to experiment, for example, if you are not familiar with the local situation, the money may eventually be handed over to the village committee or the local government to implement, five million yuan, and it would be good to really implement one or two million yuan.
But let college students implement it, at least four million yuan to implement.
Therefore, Fang Bai felt that his plan was the best, but there was no institution to do it.
A day later, this event was solemnly announced on the public notice board of the campus of Jiao Tong University.
【Xinghai Group-Jiao Tong University Students Returning Home Education Charity Activity】
"Donated by Xinghai Group, Xinghai Group and Jiaotong University organized a return education charity activity during the Spring Festival this year, and each Jiao Tong University student will donate on behalf of Xinghai Group.
In addition to the round-trip fare, accommodation and food for a few days, the maximum expenditure is 1,000 yuan, and the remaining 10,000 yuan will be used to donate to the education ...... of the university's hometown."
In addition to publicity, the counselors of each department inform the non-leaver students in charge of the class and ask them to apply to the department.
The school allocates places according to the number of students in each department, and then the department reviews and distributes them.
When the students learned the news, they instantly cheered excitedly, and their desire to go home was very strong.
"I'm going home!"
"It's been three years, and I can go home!"
There are a lot of places, in addition to the management fund of 50,000 yuan, the whole school can also allocate 495 students, and Fang Bai's fee for his class is from the dividend, only more than 200,000 yuan.
There are a lot of students in school, at least 5,000, and there are quite a few poor students.
In other words, there are still a large number of students who have not been able to benefit.
However, it can help many poor students and indirectly help tens of thousands of poor children to study.
Less than a day after the news was released, all the students who stayed on campus knew about the charity event, and the students who wanted to go home applied one after another, and at the same time submitted the aid plan, but not just submitted an application, but also had to explain how and where the money was spent.
Many students have written plans such as volunteer teaching, door-to-door visits, and school supplies and books.
The focus of this money is on compulsory education, not on treating serious illnesses and improving living conditions for children.
Just a day or two after the announcement of the news of Jiaotong University, relevant media reported on the matter, which quickly aroused enthusiastic responses in the society.
Most readers praised Xinghai Group for its educational charity method, but a small number of people felt bad and said that money was easy to be embezzled by students.
Fang Bai didn't have time to deal with this kind of social evaluation, and before doing this kind of thing, he would have thought that no matter how good you are, there will always be people who don't like it, just like the keyboard warriors of later generations.
If it's a glass heart, after reading the comments, it is estimated that I don't even have the mind to do charity again. (End of chapter)
