Man goes extra mile to help students

After graduation in 2001, Zhang Yugun sacrificed an opportunity to enjoy a better life in the city and chose to work in the poor countryside.

Over a 17-year period, Zhang has seen many teachers come and go in Heihumiao village in a remote part of Central China's Henan province because of poor conditions, but he has stayed on and made every effort to educate students and help them out of difficulties.

Zhang ferries textbooks and exercise books from the city to the school on his motorcycle via rugged mountain roads. To help those students whose parents have left the village to find work in the city, his wife quit her job to cook and clean for the students.
