Group for people with disabilities marks decade

Melodious music from the stage pleased the audience at a recent event. But it was hard to tell which was more remarkable - the music or the performer.

The pianist, Liu Wei, who lost his arms in childhood, played the instrument with his feet at a show to mark the 10th anniversary of the establishment of the Beijing Foundation for Disabled Persons.

Established in 2009, the foundation has raised money and goods worth some 189 million yuan ($26.46 million), benefiting over 300,000 people with disabilities. And it has organized 865 public-service activities.
