Love (AI) Companion Program | Accompanying every child who is out of school due to illness with love


"Since starting online learning, Tian Tian (pseudonym) has been very interested in learning and can't stop, his thirst for knowledge is overwhelming..." With a smile, Tian Tian's mother "complains" about her child's thirst for knowledge. Due to long-term illness and seeking medical treatment, Tian Tian has not been to school for a long time. Starting in September this year, with the joint efforts of the Good Future Public Welfare Foundation and the Beijing New Sunshine Charity Foundation, Tian Tian and other children with leukemia can study at home through electronic devices.

On December 4, 2018, at the 2018 GES Future Education Conference, the Good Future Public Welfare Foundation, together with the Beijing New Sunshine Charity Foundation, launched a public welfare assistance plan for children with serious illnesses - the "AI Companion Plan". In the future, the high-quality AI education resources of the Good Future Quality Education Group will be provided free of charge to children with serious illnesses.

Wang Anhua, the project director of the New Sunshine Ward School Project of the Beijing New Sunshine Charity Foundation, Zhang Na, the product operation manager of the ABC Reading product of the Good Future Quality Education Business Group, Huang Lei, the co-founder of the Love Chess Road of the Good Future Quality Education Business Group, and Man Chao, the senior director of corporate social responsibility at Good Future, attended the launch ceremony.

The 2018 GES Future Education Conference was jointly organized by the China Development Research Foundation, Beijing Normal University, Tencent, GSV, New Oriental, and Good Future, aiming to explore the future world and the development direction of education for educators around the world. "Integration·Innovation Makes Education Light Up Everyone" is the theme of this GES Future Education Conference, which also includes lighting up everyone in all regions and all groups.

Today, with the continuous development of technology, high-quality education that transcends the limitations of time and space and reaches everyone is no longer distant. We look forward to the day when every child as a unique individual can enjoy the same support and care.

As an educational enterprise, Good Future has always actively carried out public welfare activities using innovative technology and high-quality educational resources, allowing children from different groups to enjoy the same high-quality education. This includes children with serious illnesses who miss school due to illness.

As the level of medical treatment continues to develop, the cure rate for serious childhood diseases is getting higher and higher, but the compulsory education needs of children with serious illnesses who are long-term hospitalized have been neglected. In response, the Beijing New Sunshine Charity Foundation initiated the "New Sunshine Ward School" project to establish teaching facilities inside and outside the hospital for children with leukemia, providing companion-based education and using games, art, courses, and other diverse methods to help them maintain learning and social adaptation skills.

Since 2017, Good Future has been involved in the educational assistance for children with serious illnesses initiated by the Beijing New Sunshine Charity Foundation. In August 2017, Good Future and the Beijing New Sunshine Charity Foundation cooperated to recruit teacher volunteers to provide offline academic guidance and companionship for children at the New Sunshine Ward School.

On September 27, 2018, the Good Future Public Welfare Foundation and the Beijing New Sunshine Charity Foundation signed a donation agreement to donate 3000 "Hope Online" and Xueersi Light Course accounts to children with leukemia in 16 cities and 30 rooms across the country for the "New Sunshine Ward School" project, providing online course support. This also signifies that the support provided by both parties for children with serious illnesses has been upgraded to "online + offline" and "hospital + non-hospital" simultaneous support.

The release of the "AI Companion Plan" at the GES Future Education Conference on December 4 is an extension of the past cooperation between the Good Future Public Welfare Foundation and the Beijing New Sunshine Charity Foundation - from serving children with leukemia to serving all children with serious illnesses, and from providing support for Hope Online and Xueersi online courses to providing more support for the high-quality education online courses of Good Future.

The Beijing New Sunshine Charity Foundation has long been concerned about the rescue of children with serious illnesses and understands the urgent educational needs of these children. Good Future, as an educational enterprise, has high-quality educational resources and educational technology. In the future, the two parties will use their respective advantages through close cooperation to provide more educational assistance to children with serious illnesses and benefit more of them.

"Achieving a good future for everyone" means effectively responding to and supporting the educational needs of different regions and groups. From 2008 to 2018, the path of Good Future's educational public welfare has gone from focusing on the education of children in poverty-stricken areas to family education, and then to various groups of children, including pre-school children and children with serious illnesses. Throughout, what has remained unchanged is the concern and investment of Good Future in the balanced development of education.

As Bai Yunfeng, the co-founder and president of Good Future Education Group, mentioned in his keynote speech at the 2018 GES Future Education Conference: "Our exploration of the future of education has never stopped." Good Future has been committed to promoting the balanced development of education through technology, and in the future, we will continue to explore more possibilities for education, provide educational assistance to more people in need, and ensure that every child can have a bright future.
