Mr. Zhang, his wife and their 3-year-old daughter. Mr. Zhang is in his 40’s and has been handicapped since childhood with his right hand deformed in a porridge cooking burn accident when he was just 3 yrs. of age. His misfortunes worsened 2 yrs ago in another accident when he broke his neck while working on a roof and fell from the ladder. He lost all senses from the neck down and has been lying in bed with his slightly mentally ill wife caring for him and their 3yrs old daughter who is a bright and cheerful little girl. The good hearted village chief Mr. Wang has been helping this family by obtaining a minuscule social welfare payment for the family as well as by raising money to buy an electric tricycle for Mrs. Zhang to make extra money by hauling goods. In one of his visits to the farming family of Little Brother Dragon, BECHA CEO James met with the village chief Mr. Wang and was asked to consider helping Mr. Zhang’s family as a new BECHA charity project in China. On March 13, 2015, James went with Mr. Wang to visit Mr. Zhang’s family in a village of Dong Feng District in Jilin Province. The Zhang family’s dwelling is a small room about 5 square meters. There is a hospital bed for Mr. Zhang and another bed for Mrs. Zhang and daughter. Then there is hardly any room for visitors to stand inside this room that was provided by the closedown raw steel factory where Mrs. Zhang used to work. This factory was founded as a private enterprise to provide jobs for handicapped people but could not survive the harsh economic conditions for the steel factories in China. As part of the humanitarian mission in caring for less fortunate handicapped people on behalf of the BECHA Board of Directors, James donated ¥1000 RMB to Mr. Zhang’s family during this visit. He will also monitor future needs for this family via local BECHA supporters as part of the China mission.
张先生,张太太,及3岁女儿。張先生四十多歲,從小就是殘障人士,三歲時煮粥燙傷,右手因此變形。兩年前他又遭逢另一場意外,不幸雪上加霜:他在屋頂工作時從梯子上摔下,摔斷了脖子,頸部以下完全失去知覺,從此臥床不起,由略有精神疾病的妻子照顧他和他們三歲的女兒;小女孩聰明又開朗。熱心的村長王先生一直在幫助這個家庭,為他們爭取到一筆微薄的社會救助金,還募款買了一輛電動三輪車,讓張太太可以載貨賺點外快。唐宗英在一次探訪小龍哥農家時,見到了村長王先生,王先生請他考慮把幫助張家列為BECHA在中國的新慈善項目。2015年3月13日,唐宗英隨王先生到吉林省東豐縣的一個村子探訪張家。張家的住處是一個大約5平方公尺的小房間,裡面有一張給張先生用的病床,另一張床則是張太太和女兒睡的,剩下的空間幾乎容不下訪客站立。這個房間是張太太以前工作的那家已經關閉的粗鋼廠提供的。這家工廠當初是一家為殘障人士提供就業機會的民營企業,但敵不過中國鋼鐵業嚴峻的經濟環境而倒閉。作為代表BECHA董事會關懷弱勢殘障人士的人道使命的一部分,唐宗英在這次探訪中捐給張家人民幣1000元。他也將透過當地的BECHA支持者,持續關注這個家庭日後的需要,作為中國使命的一部分。
