	Social Contribution Award 2008 Overview Winners' Profile Awards Ceremony Acknowlegement Overview Congratulations to Miss Ma Mingyan and Class 2009 Section 5, the two winners of the 2008 Overseas Foundation Social Contribution Award! After three months of preparation and information collection, the Overseas Foundation Executive Committee has made the decision to award the two winners for their exceptional contributions to the community demonstrated through their extracurricular activities. The Social Contribution Award is a scholarship set up by the Fudan Fuzhong Overseas Foundation to recognize current Fuzhong students for their special contribution to communities outside of the school and family and to encourage them to serve as role models in inspiring peers in their civic life. During the selection process, the executive committee considered a number of factors, including past personal contribution, commitment as well as future impact of the candidate's social causes, in determining a candidate's qualifications. Winners' Profile The Overseas Foundation received applications from five individuals and three groups this year. We believe every applicant has made significant contribution to the community and demonstrated exceptional capabilities and dedication. Unfortunately the Overseas Foundation could only award two of the applicants. We encourage those who did not win this year to continue contributing to their worth causes and to reapply next year as their projects develop and their responsibilities grow. We are very impressed by Miss Ma Mingyan's persistent responsibility for the community, and leadership of the Community Service Department of Fudan Fuzhong. Her care for students in Hunan, and start-up program for kids outside of Shanghai were expanded to younger classes and greater areas. As a leader with creativity and dedication, Miss Ma is well recognized for her contribution both in the school and the community. We award Class 2009 Section 5 for their love and long-standing commitment of volunteering teaching in much needed Guizhou Province. The Overseas Foundation were very impressed by how each individual of their class played an important role in serving the community, and wish they continue to make a difference for the community. The executive committee sincerely hopes that the winners will take this award as a token of appreciation from the overseas alumni who have made this award possible. We also hope that Miss Ma and Class 2009 Section 5 will take advantage of this award to further contribute to the worthy cause.
