In the golden autumn of October, the Lang Lang Arts Foundation, in collaboration with the SF Foundation, extended their support to the educational initiatives of the SF Foundation Lianhua Scholarship Program. This program benefited several schools, including Song County Experimental Middle School and Luan County First High School in Henan Province, Chengkou Middle School in Chongqing Municipality, and Weishan Yi and Hui Autonomous County No. 2 Middle School in Yunnan Province.
On October 21st, the donation ceremony for the "Happy Keys" music classroom was held at Song County Experimental Middle School in Henan Province. Leaders and guests from the Luoyang Old Area Construction Promotion Association, Song County Government, SF Foundation, and Lang Lang Arts Foundation attended the ceremony and delivered speeches, encouraging the students to study hard and give back to society.

After the ceremony, guests toured the newly decorated music classroom. A music teacher from Song County Experimental Middle School demonstrated a piano lesson, captivating the students with the lively and engaging teaching interface on the screen. The interactive teaching methods, including games and competitions, sparked the students' interest in learning. Within just a few minutes, the familiar melody of "Painter" flowed from the students' hands.
Following the visit, the leaders and guests expressed that philanthropy supported by internet technology would actively promote educational development and improve teaching quality.

The five schools receiving donations are all located in nationally recognized impoverished counties. Due to objective limitations, these schools have very limited investment in teaching equipment, especially in music education. However, the students here still hold musical dreams. At Henan Luan County No.1 High School, students can be seen lining up daily to practice on the school's only public piano. At Yunnan Weishan No.2 Middle School, the entire school has only four pianos for 36 classes, making it impossible for students to experience the joy of playing. At Yunnan Zhenxiong Middle School, with over 4,400 students and only one piano, the teaching needs cannot be met. In Chongqing Chengkou Middle School, many students lack professional, systematic music education from a young age, leading to a poor foundation in music knowledge and a lack of confidence and self-expression.
The establishment of the "Happy Keys" music classrooms will help these schools conduct more systematic and scientific music education, ensuring that these music-loving children’s dreams are not hindered by inadequate hardware conditions. We believe that children growing up under the nourishment of music and art, even from impoverished areas, will have their spirits enriched and fulfilled.

The SF Foundation, supported by SF Express, is a national non-public fundraising foundation registered with the Ministry of Civil Affairs of the People's Republic of China. It primarily engages in educational grants, disaster relief, and major illness assistance, among other philanthropic activities. The collaboration between SF Foundation and Lang Lang Arts Foundation is expected to generate even greater charitable energy, helping more children grow up healthily and happily. This shared mission of two foundations reflects their commitment to spreading warmth to more regions. We look forward to working with more compassionate individuals to extend this warmth even further.
