After the Sichuan quake I cofounded a volunteer group while contributing to others. And after the Yushu quake, I founded a group that brings surgeries, solar panels, computers, coal, clothes, food, libraries, school supplies, medicine and the like to students in Qumalai county.
四川汶川地震后，我在帮助其他志愿者组织的同时，也和别人共同创办了一个志愿者组织。玉树地震后，我又创办了一个志愿者组织，为曲麻莱县学生送去太阳能电池板、电脑、煤炭、衣服、食品、药物等，帮助他们修建图书馆，完善学校设施，并为需要手术的孩子筹集善款。
Government initiatives have transformed the county.
在政府推动下，曲麻莱县已经发生了翻天覆地的变化。
