The development of YIJIN Group closely links to the support from the whole society. We never forget to make contributions to the country in return though with limited ability. Since the establishment, we have always attached attention to social welfare and actively fulfill our corporate social responsibilities. According to the incomplete statistics, since 2006, YIJIN Group and the chairman himself have jointly donated more than 40 million to the public, making a strong contribution to post-disaster reconstruction, education and cultural development, and targeted poverty alleviation in Sichuan province. The chairman has received Charity Award for two consecutive years in 2018 and 2019.
Recent years we donated nearly 10 million Yuan in terms of post-disaster reconstruction and the development in ethnic and poverty-stricken areas.

In terms of education development, the chairman has personally supported more than 100 financially-struggled college students and donated nearly 30 million Yuan to primary and middle schools, colleges and educational institutions in underdeveloped areas according to incomplete statistics, driving the progress of alleviating poverty by investing in education.

Education-related poverty alleviation projects funded by YIJIN Group and the chairman have begun to show results. For example, modern classrooms in Jiajiang Middle School lead students to share the first-class educational resources provided by elite schools such as No.479 middle school via distance learning facilities. With a rate of 100% admission to universities and colleges, an increase of 64% A-level universities enrollment rate compared with the previous rate in Jiajiang Middle School Social Science Classes, the education donation has been proved effective. At the same time, we also actively support culture and sports development in Sichuan province.

The group sponsored house properties that’s worth about 5 million to six Olympic champions in Sichuan province, organized and co-hosted several times Go board competition in years to popularize Go game.
