Out of her modest living, Chen, 59, has managed to donate nearly NT$10 million (that's $320,000) to various causes, including $32,000 for a children's fund, $144,000 to help build a library at a school she attended and another $32,000 for the local orphanage, where she also gives financial support to three children. What's so wonderful about Chen's achievement is not its extraordinariness but that it is so simple and matter of fact in its generosity. "Money serves its purpose only when it is used for those who need it," she told a newspaper. And rather than bask in her celebrity, Chen seems to dismiss the whole thing with a wave of her hand, perhaps even with a hint of irritation. "There isn't much to talk about, because I did not enter any competition," she says. "I haven't really made any huge donations." She's planning to establish a fund to help the poor with education, food and health care. Amazing, but of all she has given away, her greatest gift is her example. Lee is the Taiwanese-born director of Brokeback Mountain TIME 100 Social-Networking Index: 0 Read more: http://www.time.com/time/specials/packages/article/0,28804,1984685_1984949_1985237,00.html#ixzz0mYRnY2Ra http://tinyurl.com/38xh4s4 菜贩陈树菊获时代列为百大影响力人物 更新日期:2010/04/30 10:30 台东卖菜女贩陈树菊行善却不求回报的事迹，日前登上亚洲富比士杂志的亚太慈善英雄人物後，现又获美国时代杂志列为百大全球影响力人物名单，陈树菊在英雄类中排名第八。 菜贩陈树菊将平日卖菜所得5元、10元积少成多，汇集成无限爱心，捐钱帮母校盖图书馆，捐款认养阿尼色弗之家院童，还预定要在两年内成立慈善基金会帮助穷人看病、吃饭，陈树菊默默行善不求回报精神感动许多人。 旅美台湾名导李安推崇陈树菊善行的神奇之处，非仅限於其独特性，更在於其单纯性与慷慨大度，李安在撰写陈树菊的推荐文件时还引述她曾说过的一句话：「钱，要给需要的人才有用。」李安指出，陈树菊虽然几乎捐出一切，但她所树立的典范就是最好的回馈。 http://tw.news.yahoo.com/article/url/d/a/100430/63/24tkd.html -- 大家好 我是郭易老师的助教◎欢迎参观订阅老师的Yahoo Blog:) ☆世界纪录‧华人首位‧全球最多☆ ◎TOEIC听说读写全满分‧GEPT高级‧两项亲考背题近70次 ◎师训上百位教师(含北美籍暨长春藤Ivy League教师群) ◎郭易满分大英王国◎ http://tw.myblog.yahoo.com/etjason-etjason -- ※ 编辑: pttEnglish 来自: 61.62.201.249 (12/07 14:13)
