Thousands of yuan, the base has enabled her to complete a life span she had never thought of before.
People who help disabled friends make a leap in life
There is an unfortunate story behind every disabled person. At Canyou Base, the hardships of life have become the source of motivation for the students to break the shackles of fate.
It is Wang Shaojun, 53, who is also disabled and who creates this motivation.
"I am a grade-one severely physically disabled person. I can better understand the difficulties of disabled friends. Doing my best to help them become self-reliant and live a dignified life is the most valuable thing I can think of in my life." Disabled Friends Base To become a stage for disabled friends to realize their dreams is inseparable from the hard work and hard work of founder Wang Shaojun.
At the age of 17, Wang Shaojun was diagnosed with fibular muscular dystrophy (gradual freezing disease). Since then, he has tasted the bitterness of life inconvenience.
"The way I greet the dawn starts with my family helping me get dressed, and then carrying it to the wheelchair beside the bed." But he believes that a physical disability does not mean a spiritual disability. To be a useful person to the society is his belief that he has always adhered to.
With this belief, Wang Shaojun joined the workplace after completing his studies, and later started his own business, constantly surpassing himself in tenacity.
With a certain economic ability, Wang Shaojun began to think about how to drive more disabled people to realize their life values and dreams. Focusing on the education and employment problems faced by disabled people, he came up with the idea of establishing a training and employment base.
In 2015, after a lot of hard work, Wang Shaojun facilitated the e-commerce "cloud" customer service placement project for disabled people to land in Henan.
He used the savings of years of hard work to build a training and employment incubation base for disabled friends in Henan, building a free platform for disabled people to learn, grow and find employment.
Beautiful environment, perfect barrier-free living facilities, fragrant meals, bright classrooms... During the visit, the reporter could deeply feel the meaning of "happy home" in the mouths of disabled friends.
More than 4,700 people have been trained for free and more than 4,200 people have been placed in employment. Wang Shaojun has achieved his wish of "taking training as a means, employment as the purpose, poverty alleviation and income increase as the goal, closely combining training and employment, and forming a training and employment mechanism with short time and quick results", and realized The original intention of "allowing more disabled people to work like healthy people, achieve achievements and enjoy dignity", but he also has a knot in his heart that he can't let go of.
"I can't even sit in a wheelchair now, so I can only stay in bed." Two years ago, an accidental burn made Wang Shaojun lose the opportunity to sit in a wheelchair. He couldn't do many things in Canyou Base himself, and the future development of the base became his own. Things to consider the most.
Wang Shaojun said that over the years, many disabled friends have achieved their dreams and lived dignifiedly at the base without the support of disabled people's federations at all levels, charitable organizations, and caring enterprises and people. The team does this together.”
"It is not easy for disabled people to study and find employment, but as long as they are given opportunities, they can do well." Wang Shaojun said that he hoped that qualified enterprises could provide more jobs for disabled people, and hoped that more people would join in helping disabled people. In the course of my career, I also hope that the base will quickly form a training team based on the existing talents. "It is my goal and wish to help the disabled on the road to self-reliance and self-improvement." (End)
