GD 147 ~ Kai Di

Dear Moriah, Mei Li, Shannon, Lila, Rose and Zenshia,


Thank you very much!

I was brought up in a small mountain village. My father had an illness in his stomach. When I was very little, I started to help my mother with housework in order to reduce the pressure on my mother. Now, I am sixteen years old. During my summer vacation, I went to Guangzhou with some of my classmates to try to work for our tuition. My job was hard. I could only make 20 RMB ($2.93) per day by working more than ten hours a day. During that time, I wasn’t able to get enough sleep every day, but I kept working because we needed the money. Thankfully, I received your scholarship and a huge burden was lifted from me!

By Sept 1st, I was sitting in a classroom at this high school. I knew clearly if I wanted to change my life, I would have to study hard. My favorite university is South China Normal University. Now, with your donation, I am more confident that I can complete my high school education, go to a top university, repay to my parents for their love and support, and change my life.

When I have the ability to help others in the future, I will do the same thing as you have done. I’ll let sunshine spread on the earth and let the dark corners of the world be brightened.

At last, but most importantly, I would like to wish you a lucky future and beautiful lives.

Yours,

Kai Di
