Project Hope is the flagship program of CYDF. Founded in 1989, the goal of the project is to ensure that children in rural communities today and in the future have the opportunity to go to school. By the end of 2005 Project Hope had raised over RMB 3 billion in donations, helped 2.897 million children from poverty-stricken rural families continue their schooling, built 12,559 Hope primary schools and 200 Internet Schools in poor remote regions, presented over 13,000 Hope library kits and 3,000 film library kits to over 10,000 village schools in remote areas, and trained over 30,000 village primary school teachers. In addition, the foundation has set up a "Stars of Hope Award Fund" to support top-ranked Project Hope students in further studies and a "Hope Primary School Teacher-Training Fund" to allow teachers to sharpen their skills.
