Donations can get relief. Allocate donations? To avoid being cheated, you need to know these charity common sense.

"Whoever donates to the project donation link can get help", "Not only can you get help, but you can also get donations according to a certain proportion of the donation amount". What will a person who is in urgent need of help do when he hears such news?
Family members of children from Henan, Hubei, Guangxi, Zhejiang and other places listened to this statement, not only donated money to charity project links, but also credited large sums of money to the private accounts of "caring people" who introduced the donation, until they found out that they were cheated after no news of the payment.
After receiving the consultation from several children’s families and the explanation of "mistaken donation", the relevant charitable organizations have closed the project fundraising channel and returned the "mistaken donation" from the children’s families.
However, the money credited to the private account of the so-called "caring person" has not yet been settled-this is actually suspected of fraud. For the patient’s family, the lack of money and fraud is undoubtedly worse.
How can we avoid such a loss? Why is it wrong to say that donations can be rescued and donated? The charity law has given the answer, and the following common sense needs to be kept in mind:
Common sense-fundraising links on the Internet have different attributes.
In the Internet age, people will encounter all kinds of information for help, and out of kindness, they will often donate their love. However, these fund-raising behaviors are inconsistent in nature and can be mainly divided into two categories:
One kind is the help information published by individuals, some are directly published by themselves, and some are published through personal serious illness fund-raising platforms such as easy fund-raising and drip fund-raising. Generally, they will describe their difficulties and ask for your help.
It should be emphasized that these personal serious illness fundraising platforms are commercial organizations themselves.
The other category is the fundraising information released by charitable organizations with public fundraising qualifications to help some people (a certain group) through the charity organization Internet fundraising information platform designated by the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
Up to now, there are 20 Internet fundraising information platforms for charitable organizations designated by the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Charitable organizations qualified for public fundraising can publish fundraising information through these platforms, while individuals and organizations that are not qualified for public fundraising cannot.
Take the Aiyou Tongxin Project to help children with heart disease as an example. The project was initiated by Aiyou Charity Foundation, a charitable organization with public fundraising qualifications, and published fundraising information on Tencent Public Welfare and other public fundraising information publishing platforms. The purposes of raising funds include: providing medical expenses support for orphans and poor children with heart disease; Provide services for children and their families to improve their ability to cope with diseases. Although the information of some patients who need help will also appear in the fundraising link, this kind of fundraising is not for a certain patient, but to help a certain group of people who need help (eligible people can apply for help)-in fact, it can help more people.
According to the information released by Aiyou Charity Foundation, by the end of December 2020, the "Aiyou Tongxin" project has helped more than 63,000 children with congenital heart disease.
With the in-depth implementation of the charity law, there are more and more such internet public fundraising projects. In 2020, 20 Internet fund-raising information platforms launched a total of 31,890 projects, raising a total of 8.2 billion yuan in donations, and more than 10 billion people clicked, followed and participated in fund-raising activities.
It should be emphasized that due to the different nature, personal help and public fundraising on the Internet will be used differently. Therefore, when transferring money through links, we must first make a distinction-the simplest way to distinguish is to see whether the collection account is personal, corporate or charitable.
Generally speaking, it is the internet public fundraising to enter the charity account, and the donation relationship is established after the transfer. The donated funds are guaranteed by laws and regulations such as charity law, and charitable organizations should use them according to the agreed purposes; Those who enter the accounts of individuals and enterprises are individuals seeking help, and they establish a civil gift relationship with each other, and the funds are dominated by each other.
What needs special explanation is that "putting a large sum of money into the private account of the’ caring person’ who introduced the donation" is neither the account of a charity organization nor the account of the person seeking help. In fact, there is no guarantee-the "caring person" has made people put money into the account of the "caring person" in the name of the charity organization’s public fundraising project, which has been suspected of fraud.
Common sense 2: There is no such thing as a charitable organization that whoever donates will benefit.
The charity law stipulates that when donors and charitable organizations agree on the use and beneficiaries of donated property, they may not designate the donors’ stakeholders as beneficiaries.
What does this mean? That is, donors can’t ask that donations must be used for people who have interests with donors, such as themselves and immediate family members.
In addition, the charity law stipulates that the property of charitable organizations should be used for charitable purposes in accordance with the articles of association and donation agreements, and should not be distributed among promoters, donors and members of charitable organizations.
When the donor donates money to charity, how to use the property? If it is to be used for charitable purposes, it should not be distributed among sponsors, donors and members of charitable organizations, which means that donors can’t get money back from charitable organizations to help themselves.
Common sense 3. Donation exists, but it is given to projects rather than specific individuals.
Generally speaking, donation is to encourage more people to donate to the project, and relevant organizations and institutions increase donations on the basis of public donations, such as the donation activities carried out by Tencent Charity Foundation in "99 Public Welfare Day". It should be emphasized that the donation is not for the donors, but for the projects donated by the donors, and it shall be used according to the implementation plan and budget in the project fundraising plan.
According to the provisions of the charity law, charitable organizations will formulate fundraising plans before launching public fundraising. The fundraising plan includes the purpose of fundraising, the starting and ending time and region, the name and office address of the person in charge of the activity, the way of accepting donations, bank accounts, beneficiaries, the use of the funds and materials raised, the cost of fundraising, and the disposal of surplus property. Among them, the beneficiary is not a specific person, but a certain type of person who meets the rescue conditions.
After the money is raised, the project will carry out rescue. Those who meet the requirements of beneficiaries can apply according to the process, and those who meet the requirements after examination can get corresponding assistance as beneficiaries.
Donations from the public and donations will jointly become project funds, which will be used for project implementation and help those who meet the conditions of beneficiaries. Therefore, there will be no situation that "whoever donates to the project donation link can get help, and can also get donations according to a certain proportion of the donation amount".
In order to protect the legitimate rights and interests of charitable organizations, donors, volunteers, beneficiaries and other participants in charitable activities, the Charity Law clearly stipulates how to carry out charitable activities. Please keep in mind that only by knowing how to use the law can we safeguard our legitimate rights and interests in accordance with the law, avoid being deceived, and jointly safeguard a good environment for the healthy development of charity.

Constructing a comprehensive three-dimensional traffic corridor in the Yangtze River Economic Belt, multimodal transport and expanding the "width" of the Yangtze River

  The picture shows Chongqing Orchard Port, the China-Europe International Freight Corridor and the Yangtze River Golden Waterway are "seamlessly connected". Xinhua News Agency reporter Liu Yushe

  The provinces and cities along the Yangtze River Economic Belt have further deepened the information exchange and business cooperation among shipping, port and cargo enterprises, and promoted the development of "ship-port cargo, water-rail and door-to-door logistics" throughout the Yangtze River, which has significantly enhanced the multimodal transport function of important ports and general ports in the Yangtze River Economic Belt and realized river-sea transport, iron-water transport and public-water transport.

  In the cold winter, in Zengzhou Shipyard in Zhoushan, Zhejiang Province, a "big guy" is doing the final "dressing up" and preparing to perform a new mission. "It’s called ‘ Jianghai Zhida No.1 ’ For the first time in China, the bulk carrier manufactured by adopting the river-sea direct specification has completely changed the defects that the sea-going ships could not run into the river and the river-going ships could reach the estuary. " Li Dan, deputy general manager of Zhejiang Zengzhou Shipbuilding Co., Ltd., pointed to this "big guy" and told reporters: "In March this year, it will be officially put into operation, and container ships and tankers with the same river-sea direct function will also become their work in the near future. ‘ Little friend ’ 。”

  Zhoushan, Zhejiang Province, which is famous for its island and prospered because of its port, is located at the intersection of the North-South Maritime Passage and the Yangtze River Golden Waterway. The construction of "Jianghai Direct No.1" is only a breakthrough point for it to accelerate the construction of a comprehensive three-dimensional traffic corridor in the Yangtze River Economic Belt. In fact, the exploration of river-sea combined transport, molten iron combined transport and public water combined transport in practice is expanding the "width" of the Yangtze River.

  Jianghai Lianyun Changdayi Road

  "If the Yangtze River Economic Belt wants to develop, we must first build a logistics economic belt. In other words, logistics must be strung together, so as to promote the relevance of the whole regional construction. " According to Xu Xiaoyue, deputy director of Zhejiang Zhoushan Islands New District Management Committee and deputy mayor of Zhoushan City, the establishment of Zhoushan River-Sea Intermodal Service Center is to use the geographical advantages of Zhoushan Tongjiang and Dahai to solve the problem of river going to sea and sea entering the river, and connect the whole Yangtze River in series from Chongqing in the upper reaches, Wuhan in the middle reaches and Nanjing in the lower reaches.

  Not disappointed, with the help of the platform of Jianghai Intermodal Service Center, Zhoushan City has strengthened its docking with important ports along the Yangtze River, accelerated the strategic layout of bulk cargo along the Yangtze River, and signed cooperation agreements with Wuhan Intermodal Exchange, Maanshan Iron and Steel Group and Changhang Ro-Ro. Negotiate and dock with Wuhan Xingang Committee, China Airlines Company under Wuhan Port Development Investment and Wuhan Institute of Technology on the container project of river-sea combined transport; Reached a cooperation with Chongqing Port Group on river-sea combined transport of iron ore, containers and cold chain & HELIP; … The "gold content" of the golden waterway of the Yangtze River is constantly improving.

  Now, by clicking on Zhoushan’s public information platform of river-sea combined transport, we can see that the goods coming from "the sea" are rapidly "swimming" in the Yangtze River basin. The bulk carrier Runguang No.3, which started from the 20,000-ton unloading expansion terminal of Laotangshan Phase III and loaded with nearly 15,000 tons of soybeans, left Hong Kong at 11: 00 on January 22 and headed for Taizhou, Jiangsu. The bulk carrier "Baohang No.18", which loaded 50,000 tons of iron ore at No.5 berth in Majishan Port Area of Baosteel Phase II, also had a big belly, and sailed for the destination port of Nanjing &hellip from 10: 00 on January 21st. … The data shows that in 2017, the combined transport volume of the Yangtze River and the sea is expected to reach 1.41 billion tons, accounting for about 56% of the cargo throughput of the Yangtze River trunk line.

  Of course, there is still potential to tap the river-sea combined transport, a 20,000-ton big guy — — "Jianghai Direct No.1" is one of the potential points. "The tonnage of inland ships in the Yangtze River is generally below 10,000 tons, with a flat bottom and shallow draft, which is not stable enough after entering the sea; Because of the bridge design and deep draft, seagoing ships can’t enter the river. This means that it will take two times to load and unload during transportation, which is not only time-consuming, but also the goods will be damaged. Jianghai direct ships only need to be loaded and unloaded once, which greatly improves the transportation efficiency and reduces the logistics cost. One ton can save twenty or thirty yuan. " The account calculated by Suo Xudong, deputy director of Zhoushan Port and Shipping Administration Bureau of Zhejiang Province, shows that the smoothness of river-sea combined transport is worth looking forward to.

  Land-sea linkage is once again deep

  On December 25, 2009, Zhoushan Sea-crossing Bridge was opened to traffic on this day. Since then, Zhoushan has been "bordering" with the mainland all the way to the west, ending the history of being alone at sea. The huge photos in the urban exhibition hall of Zhoushan Archipelago New Area in Zhejiang Province "collect" five sea-crossing bridges, namely cengang, Xiangjiaomen, Taoyaomen, Xihoumen and Jintang, which are full of inexhaustible momentum.

  Nowadays, on the coast of the East China Sea, piers stand on the sea, and there is another "sea passage" — — The main passage of Zhoushan Port in Ningbo is slowly spreading out. The starting point of the main channel is Fuchi Island, which connects the existing Ningbo-Zhoushan Expressway. After crossing the Fuchimen Waterway, the Fuqimen Bridge is connected with the south side of cengang Zengci Village, and then journey to the south crosses Zhoushan Island and enters the sea again. Daishan Cross-sea Bridge takes the "hands" of Zhoushan Island and Daishan Island, and finally reaches Yushan Island through Yushan Bridge. "Each of these bridges has its own special mission." Yu Shubo, director of the Development and Reform Commission of Zhoushan City, Zhejiang Province, said with emotion.

  The Fuchimen Bridge, which is scheduled to be completed by the end of this year and opened to traffic in June next year, will effectively divert the flow of the Yongzhou Expressway and deepen the land-sea linkage. At present, the prototype has appeared; The Daishan Cross-sea Bridge, which is expected to be completed and opened to traffic in 2021, is the "dream messenger" of Daishan people. In the past, Daishan people were always trapped on the island by wind, waves and fog for nearly 50 days every year, and it is more common to queue up at ferry terminals on holidays. The construction of Daishan Cross-sea Bridge has changed this situation; Yushan Bridge is a branch line of the main channel project of Zhoushan Port in Ningbo. It is planned to be completed and opened to traffic by the end of this year, and it will become the only land channel connecting Zhoushan International Green Petrochemical Base.

  Some experts pointed out that the construction of the main channel will greatly optimize the land transportation system between Zhoushan Port in Ningbo and the Yiwu-Ningbo open channel, and turn Zhoushan into a transportation hub from the traffic terminal, which is of great significance for further improving the location conditions of Zhoushan Islands New District, driving the construction of the core port area of river-sea combined transport and supporting major industries, promoting the integration of Zhoushan Port in Ningbo, and realizing port linkage, port-city linkage and land-sea overall planning.

  In the long run, this is a longer "parabola": from the main passage of Zhoushan Port in Ningbo to the north, connecting Yangshan and finally connecting with Shanghai. By then, Shanghai Port and Ningbo Zhoushan Port will be integrated into one, forming an annular road network along the eastern coast of the Yangtze River Delta region, which will make the market radiation range of the Yangtze River Basin wider.

  Two-way opening goes further.

  A series of actions of Zhoushan, the "dragon head", have a heart along the Yangtze River. Huangshi New Port is connected by multimodal transport of hot metal and water, and the seamless connection of public, iron and water infrastructure has been realized, and the radiation capacity of the port has expanded from about 100 kilometers in general to more than 1000 kilometers along the railway line; The container freight train of "COSCO Shipping" is full of goods and leaves from the station of the first phase of Yangluo Port’s iron-water combined transport project. The whole transportation time is about 7 days shorter than that of the traditional all-water mode. At present, through the construction of a comprehensive three-dimensional traffic corridor along the river, the development of hot metal, public water and river-sea combined transport has become a hot spot, and it is the focus.

  What’s good about multimodal transport? This has to find the answer from Wen Xinxiang, deputy director of the Yangtze River Navigation Administration Bureau of the Ministry of Transport. It is reported that Xinxiang said that in terms of transportation capacity, a 5000-ton ship is equivalent to 100 cars and 100 railway wagons. If the general ledger is calculated, the annual freight volume of the Yangtze River trunk line is equivalent to about 70% of the national railway freight volume; In terms of cost, water transportation is only about 1 minute and 5 cents per ton-kilometer, the railway is close to 0.3 yuan, and the highway is the highest to 1.1 yuan. "That is to say, the price of tons of kilometers of water transportation is cents, the price of railways is cents, and the price of highways is yuan yuan. The difference is still very big." Not only that, in terms of energy consumption and emissions, water transport is much smaller and lower than roads and railways. It is self-evident that it is necessary to vigorously build the golden waterway of the Yangtze River and attract more suitable water sources to transfer to waterways.

  However, if you are happy to see the advantages, you must find the problems clearly. At present, most of the multimodal transport in the Yangtze River basin still stays in the simple superposition of transport segments, and the "linkage" of transport organizations in documents, dispatching and business connection is still very lacking. The development model of multimodal transport in the Yangtze River Economic Belt needs to be innovated urgently. After finding the problem, we should start to solve it. At the end of last year, the Yangtze River Port and Shipping Logistics Alliance Full-course Logistics Professional Committee was established in Wuhan, aiming at further deepening the information exchange and business cooperation between shipping, port and cargo enterprises, promoting the development of "ship-port cargo, water and rail, door-to-door" full-course logistics in the Yangtze River, and significantly enhancing the multimodal transport function of important ports and general ports in the Yangtze River Economic Belt, which is a "prescription".

  Multimodal transport makes the Yangtze River change from one-way opening in the West and Middle East to two-way opening, connecting the inland and the world, and it will face a broader and more dynamic market. (Economic Daily China Economic Net reporter Niu Wei)

More than 280 million person-times, 17 million person-times and 16,480 classes … Multiple sets of data witnessed the travel fever during the May 1 holiday.

CCTV News:May 2nd is the second day of the "May 1st" holiday. Compared with May 1st, the overall traffic volume of national traffic trips is expected to decrease, but it still maintains a high level of operation, and the transportation department continues to provide travel service guarantee.

The reporter learned from China State Railway Group Co.,Ltd. that on May 2, the national railway is expected to send 17 million passengers and arrange to open 1094 additional passenger trains. Railway departments around the country have strengthened passenger service, optimized the streamline of entry and exit stations, and increased security inspection and verification channels. As an important hub of the Yangtze River Delta Railway, Nanjing South Railway Station accounts for about one-fifth of the daily passenger traffic. In view of the characteristics of many transfer passengers, the station has taken measures such as adding transfer gates, sending service personnel and volunteers to guide passengers to get on and off quickly and improve passenger traffic efficiency.

On the highway side, the expressway network traffic is expected to continue to maintain a high level on May 2. The traffic volume of the highway network around most popular scenic spots and large and medium-sized cities in China will be relatively large during peak hours.

In terms of civil aviation, the national civil aviation is expected to fly 16,480 flights on May 2. Affected by rainfall and strong convective weather, some airports in the south may experience flight delays. The airport actively makes plans and assists the airline company in ensuring passenger service.

On the first day of the "May 1" holiday, the cross-regional flow of people in the whole society exceeded 280 million.

Pay attention to holiday travel. On the first day of the May 1 holiday, the cross-regional turnover of the whole society exceeded 280 million, an increase of 15.9% over the first day of the May 1 holiday in 2019. Among them, the railway passenger traffic is expected to be 20.4 million passengers, the cross-regional personnel flow on highways is expected to exceed 257 million passengers, the waterway passenger traffic is expected to be 900,000 passengers, and the civil aviation passenger traffic is expected to exceed 2.11 million passengers. In order to facilitate passengers’ convenient travel, the railway department has increased security inspection and verification channels, increased guidance in key places, and strengthened coordination with public transportation, subway, taxis and other modes of transportation to get through the "last mile" of passengers’ travel.    

Traffic Management Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security: It is expected that the traffic flow of some out-of-town roads will run at a high level today

May 2nd is the second day of the "May 1st" holiday. It is expected that the traffic flow of some roads out of the city will still run at a high level, and the number of vehicles leading to scenic spots will continue to increase. According to the forecast of the Central Meteorological Observatory, there will be rain in parts of Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan and other places on May 2, and a new round of precipitation will occur in the southern region the day after tomorrow. The Traffic Management Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security reminds drivers and passengers to pay attention to driving safety.

Fujian: Coastal water passenger transport ushered in the peak of passenger flow.

Water transport. On May 1, Fujian coastal water passenger transport ushered in the peak of passenger flow, sending nearly 200,000 passengers. Among them, the passenger flow of routes such as Meizhou Island Ferry and Xiamen Drum Ferry has increased significantly. Meizhou Island Ferry sent nearly 40,000 passengers, nearly 8 times the daily number; The ferry from Xiamen to Gulangyu sent nearly 50,000 passengers.

In order to cope with the increase in passenger flow, during the holiday period, Fujian Maritime Department implemented the "one line, one policy" guarantee scheme for passenger ferry routes to ensure the seaworthiness of ships and the suitability of routes. In view of the recent strong convective weather, the local authorities have also strengthened early warning and pre-control measures to ensure the smooth navigation of ferries.
