From April 20th to 22nd, 2026, the "Path of Good Will" study tour of the Shenzhen International Foundation for Philanthropy came to Guangzhou. Nearly 80 alumni, together with Dean Chen Huanshan and Assistant Dean Song Houliang, participated in this event. They explored the path of good will through idea exchanges and case studies, which is also a practical implementation of the four action guidelines promoted by the college's Alumni Development Committee.
On the first day of the study tour, the alumni visited Langtou Ancient Village in Huadu District, Guangzhou. This over - 700 - year - old Guangfu village, after being donated and revitalized by an alumni - run institution, has become a model of the integration of traditional culture and contemporary art. The alumni communicated in places like Jimo Building and Gengxue Building, feeling the humanistic essence of public welfare. Later, they visited the "Chunyangtai" Cultural and Museum Exhibition Hall and the renovated Gengxue Building, which showed the path of "living heritage inheritance" of cultural heritage, that is, integrating history into contemporary life through functional replacement and space reconstruction. The sharing of the rural revitalization case by the Secretary - General of the Vipshop Foundation presented a closed - loop of "business for good", providing a sample for public welfare to empower the rural economy.
On the second day, the alumni returned to the urban area and visited the Guangdong Provincial Service Incubation Base for Social Organizations of Persons with Disabilities, the Yangai Special Children's Parents Club, and the Guangdong Lions Club Exhibition Hall to understand the support system for special - needs groups and the operation mechanism of charitable organizations.
During the study tour, the CGPI Public Welfare Lecture Hall and the Public Welfare Thought Conference were held successively. Dean Chen Huanshan thanked the Guangzhou alumni for their elaborate organization and emphasized the power of co - creation and co - construction. Assistant Dean Song Houliang pointed out that public welfare practitioners need to seek internal strength, and the resilience of Guangzhou's public welfare practitioners makes the public welfare ecosystem more viable. Huang Changwei explained the value of the Guangdong Lions Club, whose leadership cultivation system has trained and sent many talents.
At the Public Welfare Lecture Hall, Liu Xiaogang shared the "Community Building Experiment" in Kemulang Community, Guangzhou, emphasizing that the resilience of the community stems from the awakening of human subjectivity and the cultivation of public spirit. At the Public Welfare Thought Conference, the unveiling ceremony of the Guangzhou Alumni Center was held. Lei Jianwei shared the policy advocacy path of grass - roots organizations, and multiple guests had a round - table dialogue on the "Resilience of Guangzhou's Public Welfare Practitioners" from different dimensions, sharing stories of maintaining composure, innovating for survival in complex environments, and interpreting the diverse resilience and persistent spirit of public welfare, which gave the participants a deeper understanding of public welfare.
