In addition to financially subsidizing these poor students, Du Peter sent emails to assisted students almost every week and communicated on the Internet. Miao Lin told reporters, "These contents include life knowledge, hot news, how to behave, etc. As long as Mr. Du feels good, he will send it to us. Teacher Du will also send us an English email to teach us not to be afraid. Writing in English is very important to master English."

After the symposium, Du Peter asked the "children" about the situation and gave everyone a gift and a red envelope. When he left, Mr. Du Peter's large suitcase was filled with all kinds of gifts, and Mr. Du Peter was very happy. He talked about his "children". He said: "It is only a decade since I saw the students I have funded from the previous poverty to the well-off life today. I feel that what I have done is worthwhile. Seeing that they have achieved something, many of them are I am very happy when I am employed and my life changes."

Subsequently, the Du Peter family rushed to Dali to see if the “Love Inspirational Fund” established by them could help local farmers.
