Mo Shuangyi poses for a photo in Tonggu County of Yichun, east China's Jiangxi Province, Jan. 9, 2015. After his father was diagnosed with leukemia in October 2014, Shuangyi, a 10-year-old schoolboy in Tonggu County, decided to collect recyclable wastes and sell them for money in order to save his father, who thought of giving up treatment because of high medical costs. His filial deeds caught extensive attention when pictures of him collecting wastes spread on the Internet. Shuangyi's family received public donations and a series of subsidies from local authorities soon after. The boy has now returned to school to focus on his education. (Xinhua/Chen Zixia) |
