Longchen P&P promotes education to enhance the future of children in remote areas.
Starting from one school, Longchen P&P has long supported children in remote areas, aiming to guide them toward the right path. Our hope is that these students, once grown, will give back to their communities and contribute to local development. Instead of offering simple charitable donations like money or materials, we follow the belief: “Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.”
We want students to become self-reliant rather than dependent on aid. In 2022, we launched the Self-Enhancement Project, designed to help students clarify their educational goals early, encouraging them to stay focused during junior high and reduce dropout risks caused by family or adaptation issues.
From 2022 to 2024, the project included five high school visits, three student sharing sessions, and one team-building camp, involving 30 volunteers and a total investment of NT$304,627. By 2024, dropouts among graduating students dropped to zero, down from three in 2022.
We believe the continued promotion of the Self-Enhancement Project will empower more children to grow into capable, community-minded individuals.
