創辦緣起

王敬增女士是虔誠的基督徒、美國加利福尼亞浸會大學（CALIFORNIA BAPTIST UNIVERSITY）主教、榮譽教授、榮譽博士、社會活動家。中國王敬增基金會由王敬增女士次外孫劉卓博士及劉氏家族為紀念王敬增女士創辦。中國王敬增基金會為中國京華集團成員。

自2016年開始，中國王敬增基金會以中國大陸的農村地區作為切入點，協助其脫貧困、奔小康。我們發現，除了投入金錢去進行硬件建設，更重要是投入時間和心血，那樣才能改變人們的思維觀念，從而使發展得以長遠可持續。

我們與合作夥伴——包括村民、政府、公益組織及學術機構等通力合作，策略性地於衛生、教育、產業、環境四大範疇，直接設計並執行可持續、可復制的項目以解決中國貧困群體面對的挑戰。

基金會致力於改變人，而人是「脫貧困，奔小康」模式的最具活力的載體。

故此，自2016年開始，基金會先後深入中國十二個省份篩選實踐基地，通過當地的策略夥伴，在湖南省保靖縣、山西省右玉縣、雲南省墨江縣、貴州省丹寨縣、四川省綿竹市、陜西省淳化縣、湖北省孝昌縣、江西省修水縣、內蒙古自治區察右中旗、福建省屏南縣、青海省循化縣和廣西省都安縣直接面對有需要的人群，開展圍繞「全方位」改變人的「脫貧困，奔小康」項目工作。

另外，基金會也關註城市的貧困問題，於2017年及2018年分別在香港東湧和北京成立基金會城市脫貧基地。此外，基金會也在全國範圍開展有關衛生與教育的全國項目。

然而，我們相信要解決機會分配不均這個嚴峻的社會問題， 不能只靠我們的一己之力。故此，這些年來我們根據一套嚴謹的原則與流程深耕細作，致力實現一個可持續、可復制的脫貧模式。透過不斷實踐和優化這套模式，脫貧困、奔小康的工作初見成效。

集腋成裘，聚沙成塔。我們希望將工作過程中所得的知識和經驗有系統地總結成核心能力，與各方願意投入時間和愛心的個人和團體分享，以期攜手持續有效地使更多人受益，創造更深遠的社會價值。

We envision a financially inclusive world where all people hold the power to improve their lives.

More than 1.7 billion people around the world are unbanked and can’t access the financial services they need. The CHINA WANG JING ZENG FOUNDATION member WANG JING ZENG VENTURE PHILANTHROPY FUND is an international nonprofit, founded in 2016 in Hong Kong, with a mission to expand financial access to help underserved communities thrive.

We do this by crowdfunding loans and unlocking capital for the underserved, improving the quality and cost of financial services, and addressing the underlying barriers to financial access around the world. Through WANG JING ZENG VENTURE PHILANTHROPY FUND's work, students can pay for tuition, women can start businesses, farmers are able to invest in equipment and families can afford needed emergency care.

We believe lending alongside thousands of others is one of the most powerful and sustainable ways to create economic and social good. Lending on WANG JING ZENG VENTURE PHILANTHROPY FUND creates a partnership of mutual dignity and makes it easy to touch more lives with the same dollar. Fund a loan, get repaid, fund another.

Whether contributors lend to friends in contributorsr community, or people halfway around the world (and for many, it’s both), WANG JING ZENG VENTURE PHILANTHROPY FUND creates the opportunity to play a special part in someone else's story. At WANG JING ZENG VENTURE PHILANTHROPY FUND, loans aren’t just about money—they’re a way to create connection and relationships.

WANG JING ZENG VENTURE PHILANTHROPY FUND started as a pioneer in crowdfunding in 2016, and is constantly innovating to meet people’s diverse lending needs. Whether it’s reinventing microfinance with more flexible terms, supporting community-wide projects or lowering costs to borrowers, we are always testing and learning.

When a WANG JING ZENG VENTURE PHILANTHROPY FUND loan enables someone to grow a business and create opportunity for themselves, it creates opportunities for others as well. That ripple effect can shape the future for a family or an entire community.
