The “Veterans Go Home” charity project has now been derived from a very rich social vision.


Two years ago, "Veterans Going Home" as a public welfare project echoed the popular concept of public welfare, and also gained initial influence through early public welfare technologies such as Weibo. After two years, I will look at the project of "Veterans Going Home", which has been derived from Sun Chunlong's personal desire to become a very rich social vision. More importantly, it has been understood by more people.

According to the original project design, it is very simple, that is, to bring back the national army veterans who entered the Burma to their ancestral homes. These veterans have left their hometowns for decades, and their relatives may have already been annihilated, but the move of "going home" is enough to comfort. Sun Chunlong, the project sponsor, resigned from the journalist profession and focused on it. As far as the charity of public welfare is concerned, it is out of control.

The two charity acts of "Veteran Home" and "Free Lunch" were born at the same time, and because the hosts are media people, it is easy to be judged by juxtaposition. Today, both projects have accumulated a good reputation and ability, especially the “veteran return home”, because facing the complicated party and national position, it has the dual return meaning of public welfare and history.

To this day, with the help of more people, the "veteran return home" has a stronger fundraising ability, which not only allows more veterans to return to their hometowns, but also grants regular subsidies to veterans who remain on the mainland. . This is not only an extension of the project's geographical scope, but also indicates that its implicit view of history has been acquainted with supporters.

The state has recently announced that it will grant pension subsidies to living military veterans. Although many veterans have died in a struggling life situation, the government's special allowance is too late, but the symbolic significance of this move is still worthy of recognition. Although it is not worth over-explaining, in this regard, the folk "veteran return home" project has at least been consolidated in legitimacy.

Regardless of the government's "certification" of social welfare, "veteran return home" has aroused a large number of people's understanding of the historical view through unswerving public welfare actions. "Veteran" becomes a symbol, and it also becomes a clue, and can also become a reference standard. What is true history, and what is the correct view of history. Public welfare projects break through the obstacles of stereotypes.

If sponsoring children's free lunches and facing the embarrassing and prosperous reality, then helping the veterans to go home is enough to contemplate: while the veterans return home, all the people affected by them are moving closer to the real history. This is also a return. In the long-term historical education, this "return" is not recognized, and the public welfare has been led by euphemism and decent.

If there is a classic public welfare model that "thinks about the meaning of life", the "Veterans Go Home" project can be regarded as an appropriate Chinese case. The project is not just an operational level such as fundraising and transmission, but also a popular historical education and value enlightenment. In the early reasons for admiring the public interest, the latter one is undoubtedly the public convinced, "the veterans go home" to do it.

We lead the veterans of our fathers and even our ancestors to go home. We also rescue ourselves from the chaotic history through their experiences, and self-adjust the direction, go back to the past, and help the self return to a proper position. It seems that we are helping veterans. In essence, veterans are guiding us. This is about reconciliation, and it is more about how the country, the family, and the people are.
