GreenNovoâs Charity Projects
Yuanyang âPoverty AlleviationâCharity Project
Background:
Yuanyang County is a national poverty regionï¼located in the southern part of Yunnan Province. The land is all mountainous, there is no flat land. It is also a multi-ethnic settlement area, in which there are 7 ethnic groups. At present, there are 86 poverty villages, with a populations of 109,211. Starting in September of 2016, GreenNovo and the local government of Yuanyang County have jointly been exploring the innovative model of a project calledâPoverty Alleviationâproject, consisting of new local urbanization construction and new rural construction projects. We have developed relevant supporting industries and we are providing more employment for these talented people. At the same time, we have developed national-level science and technology research programs and provided a new pattern of platforms for the local government, enterprises and society to work together to help to remove the poverty.
The overall goal:
To implement a precise poverty alleviation strategy, fulfill the social responsibilities of the company, and help the national poverty county Yuanyang to remove poverty from these villages before 2020.
Project Details:
Building Factory
In 2016, the company actively responded to the national preferential poverty alleviation policy, moved the company’s registered place to the national poverty county—Yuanyang County, and built the factory for âYuanyang Intelligent Industrial Project — Solid Waste Resource Utilization Production of Zinc-Aluminum Alloyâ. The annually production capacity is of 50,000 tons of zinc-aluminum alloy. It only took 121 days to build it, which is, so far, the fastest construction project in Honghe Area in history, highly praised and appreciated by the leadership of Honghe Government. The project started production in May 2017. In 2017, it paid corporate income tax of $2.43 million USD, value added tax of $374,815 USD, and other tax of $569,378 USD. It provided more than 20 local villagers employment and its contribution to Yuanyang economy has been highlighted in many areas.
Supporting Education
As a leader and promoter of âsolid waste recyclingâ, GreenNovo is actively carrying out the domestic and foreign industrial layout, always keeping in mind its own corporate social responsibility. We firmly realize that only by assisting education can we fundamentally change the life of the local youth and help them gain the ability to pursue a better life. At the same time, only talent training can bring a steady stream of vitality to the local economy, which is also in line with GreenNovoâs idea of practicing circular economy, adhering to the concept of sustainable development.

On November 17th, the âGreenNovo Public Welfareâ charity project was kicked off by the companyâs shareholders, management team, and staff. Accompanied by the laughter of children, our education charity project was launched successfully. Chairman Ma Liyang, GreenNovo shareholder Yin Haiming, and numerous staff volunteers went to Jianzhulin Primary School and Wahuicheng Primary School in Honghe Hani and Yi Autonomous Prefecture of Yunnan province to donate computers, stationeries, sports equipment, and more. Meanwhile, theyâve also signed a donation agreement with the local government for future projects.

Meanwhile, GreenNovo helped them repair the beds and buildings in disarray. The students, local villagers, and government leaders are very delighted and very much appreciated all the donations and assistance in the repairs.
The local government leader says: âGreenNovo has been a leading local enterprise since they built the factory in Yuanyang County, and has made significant contributions to the local economy and employment. GreenNovoâs charity projects will benefit a large group of people. Hopefully, the students who got support can focus on their studies, and use their knowledge and ability to return back to their hometowns and society and have a bright future.â
