Zhang Guimei: My girls said I gave them a way out. I believe they gave me a reason to go on.

In the mountains of Yunnan, one woman's belief in education has transformed thousands of lives. Huaping Girls' High School, founded by Principal Zhang Guimei, carries forward a vital mission: to give every girl, no matter how poor, the chance to learn. Through patience, music and relentless care, the school helps students climb from hardship to hope, from rural classrooms to universities across China. Their story is not about charity, but about courage – the courage to teach, to dream and to rise.
