encourage them to dream big by organizing
wonderful winter camps. The Chinese and global

6. ★★WHY WE DO DARE TO
DREAM
【Background of Dare to Dream 2015】
On August 3rd, 2014, a 6.5-magnitude earthquake took place in Yunnan Ludian city. The
focal depth is 12 kilometer, which following a heavy rain and aftershocks. Ludian earthquake
is the strongest earthquake for the last 18 years in Yunnan province. That recall the memory
of the great earthquake took place in Sichuan Province, maybe we can’t be in Ludian in time
but what about the post-seismic area in Sichuan Yaan, I still remember such a message a
mom wrote to her baby in the earthquake, "Dear Baby, if you can live, keeping in mind that
mommy love you ", the mom gave the chance to her baby and choose to give up her life. I
know these children will live bravely with the support from the heaven and they also need the
power to support them in this real world to face the reconstruction, so that’s why our DARE
TO DREAM 2015 Winter Camp will be Sichuan Yaan.
【Our Goal】
1、We will hold an international winter camp in Sichuan province where Yaan earthquake took
place. During the winter camp, our global volunteers and local volunteers will live with the
children in the post-seismic area to give them classes and offer them psychological guidance,
which will help them to walk out their depression, heal their heart, and open the windows to
them.
2、Seeking for the international and society power for the earthquake-stricken areas in Ludian,
giving hand to the reconstruction of schools
3. Planning to co-work with the professional NGO to let the curriculum plan more scientific
and create the confirmed template. At the same time, widening the ways of raising money,
and building the long term connections with the schools, NGO, medium and other cooperative
partners.
4. Using a charity sale which will be held on January 21st,2015 as a warm-up for this project
Dare to Dream and the Dream Sharing meeting which will open on February 13th,2015 as an
achievement exhibition to increase the influences the project Dare to Dream have as an
international supporting education activity and a global winter camp while holding relevant
activities at our school base are all for appealing to the society that the stay-at-home, the
poor children, and the one who lives in the disaster area should be given more care, and also
for matching the young to the poor children, in which case the young people can voluntarily
and continually go to the supporting education project.

【WHY OUR DEAR TO DREAM SO SPEICAL】
【Background of Spring Festival】
The oldest and most important festival in China is
the Spring Festival more commonly known in theWest as Chinese New Year. Like all Chinese
festivals，the date of the new year is determinedby the lunar/solar calendar rather than the West. The first
three days of the festival, people will visit their close relatives and best friends, exchanging greetings and
presents, which is known as the ‘New Year's Visit'. The young generation are given the red envelop from
their elder generation. The Spring Festival carnivals take place during this period. There are
performances of dragon dancing, lion dancing
and recreational parades in the street by some
troupes.
The fifth day is known as ‘Po Woo'. On this day
people stay home to welcome the God of
Wealth. No one visits relatives and friends
because it will bring both parts bad luck. From
the sixth day to the tenth day, people either go
out the visit their relatives or friends or go to the temples to pray for good fortune and health in the
coming year.
【What will you experience in Spring Festival】

12. Dragon Dance is another traditional
festive performance that can not be missed.
Dragon is regarded as the symbol of deity,
emperor and imperial power. In the ancient
times, people believed that dragon can make clouds
and rain, so once in dry season, they played
dragon dance to ask for rain and agreeable weather. In their minds, this creature is friendly and helpful,
who inhabits in the body of water. When play the dragon dance, people prefer the longer dragon, the
longer the better. In some communities, the dragons are so long that require twenty to thirty people to
play it. Generally, the Dragon Dance is played by many people with specially made stage props in their
hands. One person uses a pearl-like thing to lead the dragon. The dragon will follow it rising or falling,
slowly or rapidly. The scene likes that the dragon sometimes flies up to the sky, and sometimes hiding
under the ocean and breaking waves.
Couplet and Calligraphy The art of calligraphy is widely practiced and revered in the East Asian
civilizations that use Chinese characters. These include China, Japan, Korea, and formerly Vietnam[1].In
addition to being an art form in its own right,
calligraphy has also influenced ink and wash
painting, which is accomplished using
similar tools and techniques. The East
Asian tradition of calligraphy originated and
developed from China, specifically the ink and
brush writing of Chinese characters. There is a
general standardization of the various styles of
calligraphy in the East Asian tradition. Calligraphy has also led to the development of many other forms
of art in East Asia, including seal carving, ornate paperweights, and ink stones.
Paper cutting On the joyous New Year's Day, a lot of people of area is it stick various kinds of
paper-cut 111 paper-cut for window decoration at window to like. The paper-cut for window decoration
