    Oxfam Ambassadors Sammy and Myolie Wu earlier visited three villages in the Yunnan Province and observed the locals lifestyles. As the three villages are located 2900 meters above sea level, the two frankly admitted that there was high altitudes, when playing with the kids, they almost couldn’t breathe afterwards.

    Myolie personally experienced the local female’s lifestyles, carrying 120kg of potatoes on her back, but when Myolie lift up the potatoes, it soon all fell back down, she almost couldn’t even get back up. She laughed: “Although the locals are very poor, but each one of them are still very happy and hardworking. We only donated a some money to them, hoping that their lives could improve.”
    When Sammy left the three villages, the locals gave him 3 chicken eggs as a goodbye gift. It is known that the villagers would be very happy just to be able have eggs to eat. Sammy suddenly felt touched and teared up. Sammy expressed that after being in Oxfam, he promises to donate monthly to the organization. Sammy even paid 20,000 yuan out of his own pocket to take pictures and make 1000 albums to sell for charity.
