SEE More, Learn More, Grow More
Each year in China, students who achieve top academic excellence in our partner schools (located in the remote areas we serve) are awarded with a trip to Beijing: the Student Educational Experience Program or SEE.

Students earn the opportunity of a lifetime to explore the modern streets of Beijing, Tiananmen Square and visit the Great Wall of China. For many of these children, it's the very first time they travel outside of their village. It may be their first time riding a bullet train; and it is very likely their first time climbing the Great Wall!At the beginning of the school year, our partnerschools announce the details of the SEE Program. Students work hard all year, and those with the top score of their class are invited to participate in the program. We call it the SEE Program because we believe that the experience of seeing new things and travelling helps develop confidence in children and inspires them to continue towards education.

The cities of China are bustling, crowded centers of business and progression. If you've ever visited a remote village in China, you may have some idea as to where these children are from. If you haven't, however, imagine a remote place in the northern mountainous regions of China, a village of mostly dirt roads, ancient style brick homes, no heating systems, no plumbing, one-room school houses, and where living off the land is literal for the families and children who live there. The majorty of the 1.3 billion people of China are called "peasants" in the collequial speech, and are farmers and migrant workers. Poverty in education is what we aim to eliminate. That is, if we are able to help a child see more, learn more, grow more, then we can help a child living in poverty see opportunities, make educated decisions, and grow into strong, confident leaders.
