To mark the country's Youth Day on Saturday, the young students who have all received financial aid from a humanitarian assistance project because they had lost their parents at a young age, visited May Fourth Avenue in Beijing, a place where the anti-imperialist, cultural and political May Fourth Movement of 1919 started.

Their first-ever educational tour to Beijing also took them to prestigious Peking University, where they exchanged ideas with their peers. Later they visited the Great Wall and Tian'anmen Square in central Beijing, where they joined in the daily flag-raising ceremony.

In addition, the tour sponsor also arranged for them to serve as volunteers in

Chairman Mao Zedong's Memorial Hall.

The humanitarian assistance project, which is jointly sponsored by the China Children and Teenagers' Fund and Amway (China) Corporation, has provided financial aid for more than 450 orphans in Wuhan, Hubei Province, since 2002.
