Healthcare

Medical care is a basic need. It is also one of the main measures of a nation's progress and advancement. Professional medical staff and advanced facilities provide quality healthcare that can help alleviate patients' suffering and restore their health and confidence. As a result of his own experience with poverty and sickness, Mr. Li set out from an early age to devote himself to helping the sick and the needy. Following are some of the major healthcare projects undertaken by the Foundation:
