Rural Revitalization

The Rural Revitalization project integrates philanthropic services with rural development by leveraging the organizational strengths of the China Council of Lions Clubs. In line with China’s rural revitalization strategy, we mobilize our members to provide essential living and medical assistance to vulnerable populations, including low-income households and persons with severe disabilities. We offer home visits, caregiving services, and material aid to elderly individuals, minors, and persons with disabilities who lack self-care capacity within rural families. Additionally, based on local conditions, we implement initiatives to improve village appearance and rural living conditions.
