Lesson 2

8.3

Today, I'm going to talk about NPO-Greenlife. Ms Yi Jiefang is the founder of NPO-Greenlife, a charity organisation. Why did she set up such an organisation and what is it for? These are the things I'm going to talk about in my presentation 

Ms Yi had a contented life until a terrible event occurred which changed her life. Her 22-year-old son died in a road accident. For Yi Jiefang, life seemed to lose all meaning. But despite her sadness, she remembered how concerned her son had been about the sandstorms and deserts in northern China. He had said that he wanted to plant trees there after he graduated. So Yi Jiefang decided to make her son's dream come true, and NPO-Greenlife was born.
