Donated products will be auctioned on the yesky.com and all the income will be used to build the school. Xu Yongguang, secretary-general of the China Youth Development Foundation (CYDF), said the on-line Hope School will help children in poverty-stricken areas to share the same advanced education resources with their urban peers. The on-line school will also help develop the virtual education, he said.
