Le Meridien She Shan Shanghai Hotel continues its Christmas charity drive throughout the festive season this year.
With an aim to help and spread love and warmth among the less fortunate, the hotel has designated the Children's Dream Migrant School in Tianma Shan area as beneficiary of the project. Founded in 2001, Children's Dream Migrant School is the only school of its kind in the Tianma Shan and She Shan District. The hotel is collecting donations from both individuals and corporations.
Currently the school has population of 506 migrant elementary students, from grade one to six, and just 18 teachers. Due to the families' dire financial situation, half of the student population cannot afford to pay the RMB450 per semester fee and a majority of them cannot even afford to pay for their meals, which cost only RMB60 per month.
As the school is privately-run with limited social contacts and donations, lack of required equipment and facilities such as computers, uniforms has become a concern.
