【知識點】
希望工程是共青團中央、中國青少年發(fā)展基金會于1989年發(fā)起實施的,以改善貧困地區(qū)基礎(chǔ)教育設(shè)施、救助貧困地區(qū)失學(xué)少年重返校園為使命的社會公益事業(yè)。截至2019年9月,全國希望工程已累計接受捐款152.29億元,資助家庭經(jīng)濟困難學(xué)生599.42萬名,援建希望小學(xué)20195所。進入新世紀,特別是國家全面實施“兩免一補”政策后,希望工程將資助對象擴大到高中、職業(yè)教育和高等教育階段的學(xué)生,拓展了救助模式。
黨的十九大以來,希望工程聚焦教育扶貧,積極參與脫貧攻堅,將“三區(qū)三州”等重點扶貧地區(qū)的建檔立卡貧困家庭學(xué)生作為主要資助對象。據(jù)了解,為讓每個孩子都能享有公平而有質(zhì)量的教育,下一步希望工程將繼續(xù)積極資助10萬名建檔立卡貧困家庭學(xué)生完成學(xué)業(yè),以實際行動助力脫貧攻堅,為決勝全面建成小康社會擔負時代使命。
【重要講話】
讓青少年健康成長,是國家和民族的未來所系。進入新時代,共青團要把希望工程這項事業(yè)辦得更好,努力為青少年提供新助力、播種新希望。全黨全社會要繼續(xù)關(guān)注和支持希望工程,讓廣大青少年都能充分感受到黨的關(guān)懷和社會主義大家庭的溫暖,努力成長為社會主義建設(shè)者和接班人。
The nation and the people's future hinges on the youth's healthy growth, the Chinese Communist Youth League (CCYL) organizations should better promote the program and offer more assistance to the young generation in the new era. The whole Party and society should continue to pay attention to and support Project Hope so that the young people can fully feel the care of the Party and the warmth of the big socialist family, and be well-prepared to join the socialist cause.
