PURPOSE
The foundation has three key focuses: community development, people development, and medical development. Our mission is to empower materially and spiritually deprived communities to achieve sustainable improvement by rebuilding their fundamental infrastructure, investing in underprivileged children, and providing much-needed medical help.
Through its global entities, local partnerships, and teams of volunteers, the Go and Love Foundation provides a platform for people outside China and Myanmar to participate in helping these rural communities. Volunteers have been able to dedicate their time and unique skills to make changes for many lives by leading English summer camps, conducting skills training, providing distance education, and teaching health awareness workshops.
OUR STORY
In 2002, Go and Love Foundation president Betty Chou visited some rural communities in China and witnessed many families living in poverty. A majority of children from these families lost their opportunity to attend school since they could not afford it. Moved by what she witnessed, Chou shared their story with Christian believers in North America. Many people immediately responded and began supporting the basic education of 245 disadvantaged children within China.
Later, Chou realized that the children’s families also needed support in other practical areas. This led to the establishment of Go and Love Foundation in October 2003 as a non-profit organization in California. A few years later, the Hong Kong branch was established in 2009. The organization was then registered as a foreign non-governmental organization (NGO) in Yunnan Province, China, in 2011 and in Jiangsu Province, China, in 2019. In 2018, the foundation extended its ministry to northern Myanmar.
Go and Love provides a platform for people outside of China to participate in helping such rural communities. Using each individual’s own professional expertise, compassionate volunteers participate in various projects and make changes for many lives by improving others’ living conditions and facilities. In addition to the United States, these volunteers also come from Canada, Hong Kong, Singapore, and other countries.
