Through the partnership with the Our Free Sky (OFS), China Tomorrow Education Foundation (CTEF) has donated over 20,000 books to 9 school libraries in some of the most remote and poorest regions in China.

OFS (http://www.ourfreesky.org/) is a non-profit organization based in Beijing, China. Similar to CTEF, OFS has the mission to improve the education in rural China by providing volunteer teachers, funding scholarships, and donating books. CTEF first started collaborating with OFS on two earthquake-impacted schools in Pengzhou, Sichuan in September 2008 (see the link here). After the initial success, CTEF and OFS soon extended their partnership in other regions. So far, CTEF and OFS have donated books worth of RMB 106,000 to 9 schools in Sichuan, Hunan and Yunnan provinces, helping 3656 students. Below is a complete list of these schools:
