1985年，时任四川简阳县畜牧局技术干部的陈太勇，通过四川省农牧厅争取到国际小母牛组织的养羊扶贫项目，开始公益历程。基于对“授人以鱼不如授人以渔”公益理念的认同和想要“造福”乡民的情怀，1991年，他做出了一个令人“瞠目结舌”的决定：放弃“铁饭碗”，全职做公益。从此，他开启了在国内外边远落后地区的扶贫之路。

In 1985, while working as an livestock technician in Jianyang County Animal Husbandry Bureau of Sichuan Province, Chen started his charity journey by successfully applying for the Heifer International to fund a goat-raising poverty alleviation project through Sichuan Provincial Department of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry. In 1991, based on his recognition of the concept of "teaching people to fish is better than giving people a fish" and his desire to make contributions to the villagers, he gave up his secured job at local government and became a full-time nonprofit professional.

（年轻时的陈太勇）

他很早就发现扶贫扶志的重要性，把调动服务对象的主观能动性视为重中之重，强调个人意识的转变，提倡挖掘数据背后的价值而不是仅仅停留在将可数据化的内容作为最重要甚至是唯一的项目指标。

He discovered early on the importance of individual’s willingness in helping poor and regarded mobilizing the initiative of beneficiaries as top priority, hence he put quite an emphasize on the transformation of individuals’ consciousness.

他也敏锐地觉察到了扶贫和乡村振兴工作的阶段性，带领团队做了前瞻性的转型，以更好地应对大环境变化下的工作需求，提出了“助人自助”、“互助合作”，“共建渔场”等公益理念，并通过在泰国建立国际公益园，走向东南亚，探索向周边国家传递中国扶贫或公益经验。

When it came to different phases of poverty alleviation, Chen was also able to identify new needs and issues and lead his team re-strategize their program model to better help people become self-sufficient. By establishing an international charity garden in Thailand, Chen and his team began their journey of extending Chinese’s poverty alleviation model to Southeast Asia.

36年来，陈太勇始终活跃在一线，积极传播公益知识、联合各方共同推动公益行业健康发展，挖掘和培养年轻公益人；推进了数百个扶贫和乡村振兴项目的落地实施；经手管理的资金约6亿元；帮助逾百万农人。

Over the past 36 years, Chen has been active in his field, spreading philanthropy knowledge, connecting resources to promote the development of nonprofit sector, tapping and cultivating future nonprofit professionals; promoting the implementation of hundreds of poverty alleviation and rural revitalization projects; handling and managing funds of about 600 million yuan; helping more than a million farmers to become more self-sufficient.

在荣获奖项后，凤凰网记者采访了陈太勇先生，在访谈中，陈太勇分享了他公益从业36年的初心与思考。

During the interview upon being awarded, Chen also shared some more with the interviewing reporter:

记者：首先恭喜您获奖，目前心情如何？

Reporter: First of all, congratulations on your award, how do you feel now?

非常开心！为自己选择从事助人自助的公益工作感到自豪！

Chen: I’m very excited and super proud of my work as a nonprofit professional that can make changes to others’ life.

记者：您从1985年就开始参与扶贫项目,回看年轻时的自己，想对他说什么？

Reporter: You have been involved in poverty alleviation projects since 1985, what would you like to say to him when you look back at your younger self?

小伙子，当年选择加入小母牛、做公益没错！

Young man, never doubt yourself and it was the right thing to join the Heifer International for charity.

记者：什么原因促使您放弃铁饭碗，全职从事公益事业？

Reporter: What motivated you to give up your position at local government and become a full-time nonprofit professional?

九十年代初，下海经商成潮，我原本也计划自办奶羊场，搞羊奶生产加工。又正好遇上国际小母牛计划在中国拓展扶贫公益，点名邀我加入。

Chen: Back in the early 1990s, it was trendy to quit jobs and start your own business and I thought about it too. However, due to previous interaction, I was invited to join the Heifer International team to expand their China program.

我本来也生自农村，对乡村、农户有很强烈的熟悉感、归属感，加上非常认同小母牛的理念，认为帮助贫困农民需从增强自助能力开始，同时再辅以牲畜和技术支持，方可协助其实现自力更生。从事公益工作，于我而言是非常有意义和成就感的事情，所以也就很顺理成章地开始了公益生涯。

I was born and raised in the countryside and always consider myself as a part of greater farmland. Plus, I highly share the values and approaches that Heifer International has, therefore, I didn’t hesitate that much, it just felt like my callings. Being as a nonprofit professional, I felt satisfied and rewarded for what I could do, and I stayed.

记者：您从很早就意识到了“扶贫先扶志”可以说是非常具有前瞻性的，在这方面有什么经验可以分享？

Reporter: Can you share some of your experience in motivating poor people to be determined to be out of poverty?

我最早是因为参与小母牛扶贫项目进入的公益行业，小母牛的项目就很强调提升项目对象自尊自信自强意识，这其实和“扶贫先扶志”是一个道理，这种价值认同也是激励我投身公益事业的内核。 所以不管是之前的小母牛项目还是现在的海惠项目，我和团队都非常强调提升项目对象的自信、自强精神，促使受助者下决心改变现状，激发内生动力和斗志，后面再学技术，提升能力，搞好生计发展和社区活动。

I started my nonprofit career with Heifer International, and the core method of it was to help people become determined and willing to change, and I’m 100% with this. Therefore, when it comes to any project, my team and I always put an emphasize on enhancing the self-confidence and self-empowerment spirit of our beneficiaries, motivating them to make a difference, stimulating their endogenous motivation and fighting spirit, and also learning skills to enhance their capacity to engage in livelihood development and community activities.

基于这样的逻辑，我们把项目活动分为了三类：

一是农户和社区在没有外力帮助的情况下能够自己就动手干的事儿，比如打扫卫生，整治人居环境，邻里互助，敬老爱幼，唱歌跳舞开展精神文娱活动等；二是大家一起计划的项目活动如理念培训、技术培训、技术改进、生产营销、互帮互助、合作社发展等；三是需要找政府或其他机构帮助完成的活动， 如修建道路和水电等基础设施。

通过这样的分类，能让我们的工作更有阶段性，也能更好地对项目对象的状态、改变做出评估。

Based on this logic, we categories our activities into three types:

1, Things and events that can be done without outside help or resources, such as cleaning, community support, basic etiquette, and other community fun events;

2, Things that need collective efforts and participation, such as trainings, workshops, marketing and sales, and the development of community cooperatives;

3, Things that requires support and funding from other institutions and government, such as building roads and other infrastructure.

By categorizing our work in this way, we can stage our projects and better evaluate the status and changes of the project objects.

公益是助人自助的事业，也是持续带给个体和社会以能量的事业。我们不一定需要公益榜样，但需要看见公益力量。

Nonprofit sector has its own charms in mutual help, and bring positive changes into society. We do not necessarily need role models, but what nonprofit professionals were doing are definitely worth seeing and recognizing.

如同陈太勇先生的所思所想在经年的行动里传递给了每一个受益人，也滋养了他自己。

As Mr. Chen Taiyong's faith have been passed on to each beneficiaries through the years, they have also nourished himself.

祝愿每一个公益事业行动者，也期待在公益事业朝着专业性、行业化发展，如行动者联盟所期待的一样，凝聚各方力量，打通各界壁垒，共同推动公益慈善事业发展。

With sincere heart, we do hope that with the hope and support of the Action League, there will be more and more people from various backgrounds join nonprofit sector and help make changes.
