He dropped out of school during the war to help his father in business, patriotism and poverty alleviation and won numerous awards

Fang Runhua, whose ancestral home is Dongguan, Guangdong Province, was born in Heyuan, Guangdong Province in 1924. As a child, he moved to Hong Kong with his father Fang Shuquan. His mother died of illness at the age of 8. With the encouragement of his father, Fang Runhua strove for the top and was admitted to the Imperial College. The good times did not last long. In 1941, the Japanese army invaded China and occupied Hong Kong. Fang Runhua was forced to suspend school and his family business was also severely hit. He had to drop out of school to help his father do business. During his work, he was repeatedly bullied by the Japanese army. In 1948, Fang Runhua founded Xiecheng bank to deal with export trade. The Korean War broke out in the 1950s, and the United Nations embargo on China affected the business of the Fang family, but it continued to make progress. In 1953, it became the largest cinnamon exporter in Hong Kong. In 1954, it entered the real estate industry and became one of the first largest real estate developers in Hong Kong since the opening of the port. It enjoys a high reputation with established real estate families such as Fok Ying Tung, Cheng Yu Tong and Li Ka Shing. The company has been rooted in Hong Kong for 73 years

It is reported that during the difficult period of the Japanese invaders' invasion of China, Fang Shuquan had to cook porridge for the displaced refugees even if he brought rice on credit. Fang Runhua was influenced by it and inherited his father's excellent character of being kind. He was also deeply saddened by the brutal acts of the Japanese army in the early years, and realized that if the country was not strong and the people were not rich, the country would be weak and the people would be poor. In the early stage of entrepreneurship, Fang Runhua firmly told his father, "if you have a successful career in the future, you must engage in charity work." With the development and growth of Xiecheng bank, he established fangshufutang fund in 1977 and fangrunhua fund in 1986, drawing 10% - 15% of the profits from the company every year for charity, so as to achieve the purpose of taking and using the society. As a generation of patriotic Confucian businessmen, Fang Runhua has served in many public offices in Hong Kong and the mainland, including honorary president of the China Charity Federation, vice president of the Hong Kong real estate construction chamber of Commerce, and has won the fourth national top ten "poverty alleviation champion", the Ministry of Civil Affairs awarded the "China Charity Award", Forbes 2010 "Asian charity hero", 17 domestic and foreign universities awarded honorary doctors or honorary academicians The Hong Kong SAR Government awarded the "Silver Bauhinia Star", "Golden Bauhinia Star", and other charities have achieved outstanding results

Oxfam philanthropic donation projects are numerous, donating medical assistants to earthquake relief and sparing no effort

Since 1956, the Fang Runhua family has been the first to donate money to the mainland and become a pioneer of charity. In order to repay the nurturing kindness of his hometown Dongguan, Fang Zhaoyi primary school, the first local school, and Fang Shuquan hospital, Houjie Town, Dongguan, were successively built. In terms of education, Fang Runhua often regretted that he was out of school when he was young. He strongly supported the hope project, donated nearly 200 primary and secondary schools, and called on more rich businessmen in Hong Kong to join: "supporting education is a long-term undertaking. Now sowing seeds will always bear fruit in the future, and the impact of education will span generations." He also funded more than 130 key universities of the "211 Project" to establish computer centers, teaching buildings, lecture halls and other educational facilities, and set up "teaching Scholarships" in some universities. Mr. Fang has donated more than 300 schools and countless educational projects in more than 60 years, covering 31 provinces, cities and autonomous regions across the country. Nowadays, helping many students complete their study dreams is another kind of fulfillment

Fang Runhua once went deep into remote mountainous areas and witnessed the difficulty of medical treatment of the people at the bottom, so philanthropy was extended to the medical field. Through Fang's two funds, he donated and built more than 50 township health centers in many poor villages and towns such as Inner Mongolia and Heilongjiang, which solved the problem of "difficult and expensive medical treatment" for the villagers. He also chose high-quality universities and hospitals to focus on supporting the research and development of new drugs and new instruments to treat common diseases such as cancer, heart disease, hepatitis B and diabetes. From primary treatment to high-end medical treatment, they have made outstanding contributions to the benefit of public health. In terms of social welfare, the fund donated and raised tens of thousands of wheelchairs to the elderly, the weak and the disabled everywhere. At the same time, through the relevant government departments and charities, it donated and built elderly centers, child care centers and child care centers in China and Hong Kong, truly achieving the goal of providing medical assistance to the disabled and caring for the elderly and children. In order to support the development of China's aerospace industry and improve the research environment for researchers, Fang Runhua has donated to build education, science and entertainment centers in Xichang and Jiuquan satellite launch centers, and scientific research at Nanjing Zijinshan observatory. In order to commemorate Fang Runhua's contribution to the development of China's space industry, planet 5198 was named "Fang Runhua star" in 1994, nominated by Zijinshan Observatory and approved by the international asteroid Commission. In the event of natural disasters, Fang Runhua and the two funds have stood up for many times. During the earthquake relief operations of the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, primary schools were donated in Tongjiang County, Yilong county and other disaster areas, and millions were donated to help disaster stricken college students tide over the difficulties. Fang Runhua also donated 3million yuan to the education foundation of Zhejiang University to help scientific research on the prevention of h7n9 avian influenza and provide more training opportunities for front-line clinical doctors and nurses. When the COVID-19 broke out, Fang Runhua immediately made donations and followed the anti epidemic team

Fang Runhua's donations to education, medical services, aerospace science and technology, care services for the elderly and children, community construction and other projects are numerous, and the donations have exceeded 1billion. Fang Runhua was invited to return to his alma mater King's college to share. Asked why he spared no effort to do charity, he said: "my childhood experience of war has made me deeply understand the importance of education and health. I hope that all Chinese children can read books and that mankind will be free from disease. In addition, I want to support China in developing science and technology and make the country prosperous and strong." As a descendant of Fang Runhua, his grandson Fang Tianming also said, "Grandpa taught by example and influenced far. All members of our family will continue this benevolence, love the country and Hong Kong, and use their own strength to promote the development of science and technology. The idea of Fang shufutang fund and Fang Runhua fund to help people in need will be passed on from generation to generation." This person is dead, and the seeds that Fang Runhua sowed all his life on the charity road will continue to blossom and bear fruit. "Fang Runhua star" will always shine in space, illuminating the direction of more charity walkers
