青海省贵南县平均海拔为3100米，冬季长达5个月。77,230名居民中83%为藏族。该区域包括73个行政村，3个农业乡镇和3个畜牧乡镇，经济活动以畜牧和农业种植为主，户均年收入为4,500元。在畜牧社区中，98%牧民是文盲。因汉语水平低，当地居民鲜有外出务工者。很多父母无经济能力供孩子上高中和大学。80-90%的孩子在义务教育结束以后便辍学，留在家里结婚、务农，重复落后和贫困的恶性循环。高原气候多变，在一定程度上影响了当地居民的健康。肝炎，肺气肿，糖尿病，性疾病等是当地的常见疾病。缺水亦给畜牧区人们生活带来严峻挑战。平均每个家庭每天需花费4-6个小时背水,而这种工作一般都是由妇女承担。

为解决以上问题，我们目前和当地的草根机构友谊慈善会合作，以提供基础教育、饮水及卫生、文化保护、环保等方面的援助。

Guinan County (Mangra in Tibetan) is located in Hainan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province. The average altitude is 3,100 meters with 5 months of harsh winter. It is home to 77,230 people, of whom 83% are Tibetan. Herding and farming are the key economic activities in 73 administrative villages in 3 pasturing and 3 farming townships and towns. The average annual cash income per household is approximately 4,500 RMB. Locals seldom go to other places to work limited by poor Chinese language ability. Ninety-eight percent of residents from most herding communities are illiterate. Many parents cannot pay for high school and university expenses for their children. Approximately 80% – 90% children do not continue education beyond compulsory school. Consequently, students stay at home, get married and give birth, repeating the cycle of poverty. Additionally, the local highland climate changes unpredictably, leading to poor health. Hepatitis, hepatomegaly, diabetes, STDs, and other illnesses are common. Lack of water is also a severe challenge in herding communities. On average, each household spends 4 – 6 hours daily to fetch water by carrying water containers and using donkey-drawn carts. Water-fetching falls most squarely on the shoulders of women.

We aim to address these problems in cooperation with FCA, a local grassroot NGO working since 2005. We will focus on education, water and sanitation, cultural and environmental protection, and social enterprise.
