The launching ceremony of YiXingZhe Children's Tumor Relief Fund

February 4, 2021, the third month of the twelfth lunar month, a small year in the north, has the meaning of resigning from the old and welcoming the new and welcoming good luck. A group of special partners gathered in the conference room of Beijing Hui'an Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine. The atmosphere was warm. They came to witness the launching ceremony of Yixingzhe Children's Tumor Relief Fund. It’s special because most of these people met for the first time, but they were extraordinarily kind, as if they had seen the same comrades in the trenches. Although they had never met, they all knew clearly that we were here. Watching the same goal.

In fact, choosing this date is not a deliberate rush to spend a small year, but this interesting coincidence has strengthened everyone's expectations for the opening of a new chapter.

February 4th is World Cancer Day. It was initiated by the International Union Against Cancer (UICC) in 2000. It tried to advocate new methods to promote cooperation between organizations, accelerate the progress of cancer research, prevention and treatment, and benefit mankind. . Yixingzhe Children’s Tumor Relief Fund is a successful example of cross-organization cooperation. It was mainly initiated by entrepreneur Jiao Xiucai and brought together entrepreneurs from Peking University Guanghua School of Management, Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business, as well as Beijing Yixingzhe Charity Foundation, Beijing Concentric Circle The charity foundation hopes to bring more hope to children with tumors/family by doing things real.

As the representative of the initiator, Mr. Jiao used a short video to discover his intentions in his opening speech.

In 2019, the authoritative medical journal "The Lancet Oncology" released the first report assessing the global burden of disease in children and adolescents. It can be seen that childhood cancer is following adult cancer, liver cancer, stomach cancer, colon cancer and cancer. The sixth largest cancer burden. The regions with the highest burden of childhood cancer in 2017 were Asia and Oceania. India has the highest burden of childhood cancer, and China ranks second in the world. As a result, it is an indisputable fact that the incidence of childhood tumors has increased year after year. According to data from the Chinese Anti-Cancer Association, the incidence of childhood tumors across the country has been increasing at a rate of 2.8% every year for the past ten years.

Relatively speaking, childhood tumors have their particularities. As long as they are detected and treated as early as possible, their cure rate is actually much higher than that of adult cancer patients. The overall five-year survival rate of all childhood tumors can reach 80% abroad. , 10 years of long-term survival can be said to be clinically cured, and the current five-year survival rate in China can reach 60%, and even some children's tumors may subside spontaneously under certain conditions.

But anti-cancer treatment is not a smooth path. Every cancer patient/family has two mountains on their backs, one is the limit of medicine, and the other is the limit of affordability. As mentioned earlier, it may not be appropriate to say that when medical treatment is already higher, but some are objective facts-money is equal to a child's hit.

Jiao always said that he was heartbroken to see many families give up because they couldn't afford the treatment, especially when you are facing a group of children whose lives have just begun, do you want to watch them die? This suffering kept him awake all night. As a successful entrepreneur, he felt that he should be able to do more, so he shared these ideas with his classmates at Peking University Guanghua School of Management and Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business, and the fate began here. On behalf of the classmates, Ms. Bai Kunyu and Ms. Wu Ting in Dublin pointed out the sense of mission as an entrepreneur, that is, to be more active in social responsibility while seeking business benefits. They feel very much about having the opportunity to participate in such a professional relief project. It is an honor and also a learning opportunity. Professional things should be done by professional people.

The professional organizations that appeared in this fund were Beijing Yixingzhe Charity Foundation and Beijing Tongxinyuan Charity Foundation. The two presidents, Chen Jiajun, and Qiu Xu also had the opportunity to share their feelings about public welfare practices and their expectations for this project.

Entrepreneurs are one of the main forces of charity rescuers. First of all, of course, because ordinary people have stronger economic strength and deeper social resources, but Chen Jiajun hinted that what really impressed him was another A key point is that the incomparable humility of entrepreneurs like Jiao Zong who are really committed to public welfare is admirable, and it is this humility that allows more energy to be gathered, just like today's start. This fund project is as valuable as it is!

He shared the story of Mr. Schindler’s death in "Schindler’s List". The gravestones of Mr. Schindler were piled up with pebbles, which came from the Jews saved by him and their descendants. Every stone represents a life, and it seems to have evolved the value of Mr. Schindler’s life in a very intuitive way. President Qiu Xu summed up this value in a sentence he regarded as the creed of life-"Whoever saves one person" , That is, to save the world".

The audience at the scene expressed their recognition and support for these orientations with bursts of applause.

Afterwards, everyone witnessed the sponsors surviving the first 500,000 yuan for the foundation. They will become new loving homes in the coming year to provide more short-term turnover housing for families with serious illnesses coming to Beijing for treatment; Provide emergency medical financial assistance for patients with serious illnesses in emergencies; there are also the Dream Realization Project and the Xiaojia Care Project to bring more happy memories to these children who are struggling with the disease. At the same time, this 500,000 yuan is also a "seed fund", and it is expected that it can inspire and drive more people to participate and cultivate a fertile soil for the growth of kindness.

The kick-off ceremony lasted just two or three hours. There was warmth, touch, tears, and laughter. When hearing the story of Xiao Ruoxi, everyone felt distressed for this five-year-old baby, and fortunate that she had received everyone's help, and fortunate that they did not stand by. When a group of cute and loving children sang and danced on the stage childishly and performed "Little Apple" for everyone, the audience couldn't help but laugh happily. These children bravely passed through the painful treatment. In the stage, the little heroes who have entered the stable observation period, watching them can talk and laugh like ordinary children, and occasionally be naughty, everyone's heart is warm. Emotional ups and downs are just like what you experience in daily rescue work. The more you do, the deeper you feel, the more you feel that every nerve is affected by these details, and the more you feel how you can save yourself while helping them. Only those who have experienced it can understand the life, whether smiling faces or tears, there are firm gazes behind them, which is the meaning of perseverance.

Therefore, when Ms. Wu Ting stood up and said, “Xiao Ruoxi’s wish to see the sea will be realized by me and the business school classmates present here. We will accompany her to the beach to realize her dream. Let’s start now!" The warmest applause and cheers since the beginning of the ceremony immediately sounded on the scene!

The whole ceremony came to an end in the MV of "Love Dreams". This MV was played by the children with tumors and the doctors and nurses. The melody is brisk, the plot is humorous and warm, and the lyrics are sung like this:

You blinked big eyes,

so cute,

I really want to put you in my pocket,

……

I just want to pamper you,

……

Some light sprinkled warmly,

Can't help but look forward to it, because of love.
