These endowments include the dormitory of the First Elementary School in Xiushui Township of Anxian County, a kindergarten in Xiushui and a two-story medical building for ambulatory services in Chenjiaba Township of BeiChuan County.

These contributions are expected to allow more quake-affected children to receive education in school and to extend medical services to remote villages.

Venerable Guo Pin said that in line with the compassionate spirit of the Most Venerable Master Sheng Yen, DDMSWCF will continue to do its best in humanitarian works for quack-affected people hoping that they could back to a normal and peaceful life soon.

He went on to specially point out that love and care are not only sent from the Taiwanese as the Dharma Drum Mountain Buddhist Association (DDMBA) in New York funded the building of the Kindergarten in Xiushui Township through DDMSWCF which displayed the compassion of DDM’s followers in the United States.
