At 3:56 p.m. on September 1, a rapid ringing of the phone—ding ding ding—brought an urgent call to United Laboratories Sales Co., Ltd.: Xiaomin, a ninth-grade student at Jingshan Experimental School, was facing a financial crisis due to an unexpected family emergency and was forced to drop out of school!

Instead of striving for the high school entrance exam in a bright classroom, she was forced to pause her dreams under the heavy weight of reality—a situation that touched everyone’s hearts. When Director Li Qikai of China Care for the Next Generation Working Committee in Sanzhao Town informed the company of Xiaomin’s circumstances, the entire organization responded instantly. Without hesitation, a race-against-time relay of compassion was launched, and the management team quickly made a decision.

In just one day, a total of 14,000 RMB in educational aid was raised—12,000 RMB from the “Feiyan Student Assistance Fund” and 2,000 RMB in personal donations from caring individuals—providing Xiaomin with immediate support to continue her studies. Xiaomin is well-behaved and academically excellent; such an outstanding child should not miss educational opportunities due to hardship. “No child’s education should be halted by adversity” became our firm and immediate conviction.

On the afternoon of September 3, Wu Ling, Manager of the Human Resources Department of the United Laboratories Sales Co., Ltd., brought the student aid funds and carefully prepared daily necessities to Jingshan Experimental School for the donation ceremony. The event was attended by Executive Principal Yu Shengcang, Vice Principal Pan Sheng, Deputy Secretary of the Party Branch Sun Rongguo, Liu Ye, Member of the Sanzhao Town Party Committee and Director of the Town Armed Forces Department, Director Li Qikai and Deputy Director Yang Zhenhua of the Sanzhao Town Gongcheng Committee, as well as Xiaomin and her parents. The ceremony was filled with warmth and gratitude.

When the student aid fund was solemnly handed to Xiaomin, the girl’s eyes welled up with tears. She clutched the handwritten thank-you letter tightly, repeatedly expressing her heartfelt “thank you.” Her mother was overcome with emotion, crying uncontrollably as she kept saying, “With the help of kind-hearted people, she can continue her studies.”

Corporate social responsibility is never just a slogan on paper—it is action taken without a moment’s delay in times of crisis, combined with genuine care from the heart. On this special day, September 3, we upheld the corporate mission of “Love China, For China,” committing to continue supporting the educational needs of students in hardship. Through the ongoing “Filial Piety Swallows” Charity program, we aim to protect the “right to education” for more children, one thoughtful action at a time.
