main place that Keats School is helping. Zhemi, at
the border of China and Vietnam, is one of the
poorest villages in China. There is no train to
Zhemi, only a narrow path. Seven minority groups
live there. Zhemi has 33 primary education centers.
The largest one has 317 students, and the smallest
one has 12 students. Currently, the government
provides textbooks for the students for free, but
what they badly need are books to read after school.
Keats School not only offers them help directly, but
also encourages other people to join us to help them
together. No matter if you are Chinese or a
foreigner, we invite you to join us to help
thema€”donating books.
