Shanghai Soong Ching Ling Foundation in 2013 set up a "Farmer Entrepreneurship Baton Special Fund." The aim of this project is to change the poverty situation of the rural families, to solve the problems of the rural children's education, and to encourage the farmers to return to their native families and start their own business in their hometown, thus alleviating the problems of the children left behind and promoting the family harmony and social stability. The fund will be earmarked for the "Farmer Entrepreneurship Baton Program".
