The former NBA All-Star has been focusing on helping underprivileged children across the country, a cause which is supported by his annual charity game. Joined by Chicago Bulls superstar Joakim Noah, Yao Ming reiterated his desire to help children without proper equipment or facilities learn to play basketball. The retired center had donated a shipment of sports gear to this school in Beijing prior to his visit, and vowed to pull in more outside attention, despite a lack of trust for charity organisations in China. Yao said, "We’ve devoted a lot of efforts to finding more sponsors. Many in the public have a lot of doubts about China’s charity works over the past two years, which has also had some impact on our own endeavors. We’ve been working hard to improve our credibility and improve our transparency. We welcome societal supervision of our work." Yao and Noah ran through some basic basketball skills with the children, trying to help establish a passion for sports dream among the group. The Chinese hoops legend also brought his own daughter along, with the intent of fostering a spirit of helping others. Yao said, "Many parents would like to have a vivid lesson like this today, and let them see every part of society, and let them know how lucky they are. I hope they can start building up the mentality of giving back to society from very young age." Following the weekend’s activities, a number of children from the school will be invited to attend Monday’s charity game, when several NBA stars including Noah, Tracey McGrady, and Metta World Peace will match up against the Chinese National Team at Beijing’s Wukesong Stadium. 本栏目更多同类内容 扫码关注和谐英语微信公众号,第一时间获取最新学习资料 或公众号搜索myhxen 上一篇 奥巴马访问南非大赞曼德拉精神 下一篇 中国的单身汉将单身更长时间 相关文章 全球健康促进大会在上海开幕葡萄牙人经营中国艺术学校寻找方法促进经济增长中国首部慈善法今起正式实施Pokemon Go的成功促进AR技术中国国务院敦促促进民间投资国际儿童节:促进孩子们的福利姚明的葡萄酒业务亚洲国家通过对话促进安全姚明入选2016年名人堂 创历史
