Jerry lived in a small town in America. She always wanted to help others when she was young. At the age of 5, she learnt about an organization named Locks of Love. It uses hair donations (捐献) to make wigs (假发) for children who have lost their hair because of cancer or other illnesses. Jerry then asked her mother to cut her long hair and send it to the organization.
At 8, she learnt that other children had no clean water in Africa, and she was shocked. When her school began raising money to build wells there, she asked her parents to stop holding her birthday party. Also, she asked her friends each to donate $9 to the project in Africa instead of giving her birthday presents.
One year later, it was her ninth birthday on June 12. She made a birthday page on the Internet with a goal of $300. But Jerry was able to raise only $200. This made her a little sad.
Unluckily, Jerry was badly hurt in an accident after eight days. That was terrible news to her friends. They wanted to find some ways of showing support to her. More and more friends began donating on her birthday page. Donations passed her $300 goal quickly and kept rising.
When it was clear that she would never come back to life, her parents donated her organ (器官) to other children. They also donated her hair a final time to Locks of Love.
More money was being raised. The total donations soon reached $100,000, then $300,000. So far more than $850,000 has been raised from all over the world, including donations from the Africans who are moved by the little American girl.

【推荐2】As a volunteer teacher, I traveled a long way to a small village school in Guangxi. On my way there, I thought about everything that I might meet. However, my heart was down when I arrived there. It wasn’t what I expected. It didn’t look like a school at all! There were only three rooms, one for Grades 1, 2 and 3, and another for Grades 4, 5 and 6. The third one was for me.
The children welcomed me warmly on my first day. They asked me a lot of questions, and I told them stories about myself. The next day, I gave them a test to find out their levels (水平). To my surprise, though the test was very easy, over half of the students failed (不及格). But I knew they all wanted to learn new things and they needed me.
Now I am busy preparing lessons for them every night. I can see that they are doing better and better with my help. I have worked in Guangxi for a year now. I’m very happy here. It is also useful for me to have such an experience. I love the small village and the children. In fact, I would like to go on working here.

【推荐1】I only had a big goal(目标) last year. It was to raise money for my friend’s daughter’s school life. She lost her mother earlier last year. First I asked my friends and family for help. I got $1,978 from them. But my goal was $2,000. To reach the goal, I joined a half- marathon(半程马拉松). I promised to run in the banana clothes if my friends helped me reach my goal of $2,000 on the day of the half-marathon.
On that day, I put on my banana clothes and went to the streets of Los Angeles to raise money with the help of my friends. I ran in the banana clothes from Venice Beach to the Third Street Promenade (about 10 kilometers) and back. A great number of people looked at me, maybe thinking I was crazy(疯狂的). One man I met laughed because of my funny clothes and told me that I made him happy.
After running that day, I looked at my fundraising(募款的) money someone gave me, and there was a $500 donation(捐款) on the paper from a man named Paul.
With the help of my friends and kind Paul, I reached my goal. I didn’t know who he was and why he gave so much, but I would like to meet him, so I could say “thank you” to him.
