Guoqiang Public Welfare Foundation

Who We Are

A dynamic foundation deeply engaged in global education, nurturing a new generation of young people with social responsibility and global competence.

Our Mission

To nurture the next generation of changemakers endowed with social commitment and global vision, advancing human progress.

Our Vision

Make the world a better place for having us in it.

This vision stems from the profound life experiences and enduring founding aspirations of our founder, Mr Yang Guoqiang. He once shared candidly:

In my secondary school days, my family was so poor that I could not afford tuition. I was able to finish my schooling only because the government waived my fees and offered a two-yuan stipend. I know deeply that support extended to those in hardship serves as a vital lifeline.

Passing the Torch

True greatness lies not in material wealth, but in the capacity to illuminate the lives of others. Let us pass the torch, spread kindness, and jointly light the path toward shared human progress.
