　　Core Tip

　　Today, many people have been swiped by a public welfare activity launched by Tencent Charity, the "Children’s" Gallery! In the activity, many works created by different "children" are being sold for only "1 yuan" each. However, by midday, the painting style has changed, and a rumor that investors are suspected of making money has exploded into various WeChat groups. Is this activity charity or money?

　　Today, many people are overwhelmed by these pictures!

　　This is a public welfare activity initiated by Tencent Charity – "Children" Gallery.

　　Here, there are many works created by different "children" for sale, each for only "1 yuan". However, the paintings that are "bought" cannot be taken home, but can be saved as wallpapers for mobile phones.

　　The "children" behind these works are a special group of people. From adolescence to middle age, the age span of "children" is not small. However, autism, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome… These diseases make them have to face the reality that they cannot truly "grow" in their lifetime.

　　As of 14:30 on August 29, this activity has raised 15029044.79 yuan in donations, with more than 5.8 million people participating in the fundraising.

　　[Investors circle money?]

　　However, by midday, the painting style changed suddenly, and a rumor that investors were suspected of making money exploded in various WeChat groups. The sticker said: "Investors make money, and one-tenth of the children can’t get it."

　　In response, Tencent responded: 99 Charity Day "Children’s Gallery" H5 is an online and offline interactive public welfare project jointly produced by Tencent Charity and "wabc Accessible Art Road" public welfare organization, and there is no so-called "investor". Donations from users will not go to Tencent Charity, but will be accepted by Shenzhen Aiyou Future Charity Foundation.

　　Every time a user purchases an electronic painting of an autistic child, it is equivalent to donating to the "Light Up Life with Art" charity project on the Tencent Charity platform. The donations will be used to help special groups with mental disabilities such as autism, cerebral palsy, and Down syndrome improve their lives, integrate into society, and realize their self-worth. There is no "share".

　　In addition, the usage of donations will be regularly announced on the Tencent Charity platform, and will be subject to supervision and inquiry from all the public (inquiry path: open WeChat, me-wallet-Tencent Charity-personal center-donation record). If users follow the "Tencent Charity" WeChat service account, they will also receive timely push of the implementation details of donations.

　　[Whether it violates the provisions of the Charity Law]

　　However, some netizens have also raised questions. Article 25 of the Charity Law of the People’s Republic of China stipulates that when conducting public fundraising, the name of the fundraising organization, the qualification certificate for public fundraising, the fundraising plan, contact information, and the method of inquiring about fundraising information shall be announced at the scene of the fundraising activity or in a prominent position on the carrier of the fundraising activity.

　　The Knews reporter made four donations, but from beginning to end, no information such as the public fundraising qualification certificate and contact information was found on the project page. Only the Shenzhen Aiyou Future Charity Foundation appeared on the final payment page. However, on the official website of the foundation, the reporter did not find the qualification certificate and other information.

　　In this regard, a person in charge of Shenzhen Aiyou Future surnamed Liu said: Previously, due to limited manpower, it was not possible to upload the qualification certificate on the project page, official website and other public channels, and will follow up and publicly raise the qualification.

　　At 3:30 PM, Tencent sent the public fundraising qualification certificate of Shenzhen Aiyou Future to Knews reporters. At the same time, in the company introduction of Tencent Charity about Aiyou Future, the qualification certificate and other information can also be checked simultaneously, showing that this is a qualified charity.
