STUST organized this fund-raising dinner in order to show gratitude to the alumni and donors from all walks of life, with whose generosity students can realize their dreams. Before the dinner party started, the organizer showed a film about the achievement and implementation of assistance to disadvantaged students, which was adapted from a true story. The ending song of the film was composed by a disadvantaged student and his/her team from the Department of Pop Music Industry. The exciting melody as well as the warm, touching lyrics of the song deeply touched and moved the heart of every guest.

In order to encourage colleges and universities to raise funds from outside the campus (enterprises, alumni, foundations, etc.) to help disadvantaged students so that they can study without worries, the Ministry of Education also gave support in the form of reciprocal subsidies and added to the funds raised. All the funds raised by STUST will be used in accordance with the regulations and for academic counseling of students who are disadvantaged by the overall economy, so that these disadvantaged students can obtain a better educational environment. Since 2017, STUST has raised funds from all walks of life, and the relative subsidy amount of the Ministry of Education has benefited more than 32,000 disadvantaged students. The flow of funds raised has also been published on the school website in accordance with related regulations. It is hoped that people from all walks of life will continue to give strong support to the charity for disadvantaged students to help them focus on learning and create a brighter future for themselves.

Deng-mao Lu, President of STUST, said that the expenses of this fund-raising dinner were all paid by the school, and all the funds raised and the grants from the Ministry of Education would be used for the academic counseling of disadvantaged students. He showed great gratitude to all the guests and participants for their support. The assistance mechanism of colleges and universities is mainly to help disadvantaged students so that they can focus on their studies wholeheartedly. The funds raised will be used to improve the English ability of disadvantaged students, improve their reading and expression skills, increase subsidies to competition-oriented special production, improve their professional practical ability, support low-income and low-middle-income students to study abroad, and improve the most urgently needed programs for disadvantaged students, such as the acceptance rate of economically disadvantaged students and scholarships. All these are meant to give disadvantaged students the opportunity to innovate themselves and usher in a better future.
