Goal of 1919 Event


The CCRA's 1919 After-School Tutoring Project for disadvantaged students began in 2004. For the past 14 years, 30,000 children have benefited from the project. The community-based 1919 Service Centers will serve 2,838 disadvantaged students (approximately 240 classes) from Sep. 2018 to Aug. 2019. It costs NT 1200 per month for an elementary school student and NT 2000 per month for a junior high school student. The period of support is at least one year. In addition, 81 classes in the arts will be offered. The total required funding is NT 57 million. In order to raise these funds, Studio Classroom, CCRA and TRAVELER have joined efforts, for the fourth year in a row, to hold a charity running event: the "2018 Let's Run." All the proceeds will be donated to the 1919 After-School Tutoring Project. We appeal to society to support these students in their educational needs. Together, we can show care and love to an even greater number of disadvantaged children.
