See the Struggle. Guard the Soul. Move Forward Together.

 

Many charity workers have long dedicated themselves to serving orphaned and disabled children, offering quiet devotion and meticulous care. However, the psychological pressure generated in their work often goes unseen. While they guard others, these unsung heroes also need understanding and support themselves. 

1. Ms. A knew this struggle well. She was deeply troubled by persistent depressive feelings and physical and mental exhaustion, severely affecting her sleep and daily work. In August 2023, she reached out to the United Foundation for China’s Health (UFCH) for help. The Foundation responded by connecting her with professional mental healthcare support.To date, UFCH has funded 38 counseling sessions for Ms. A. Through professional psychological counseling and psychiatric evaluation and treatment, her mental health has improved significantly. She has regained her emotional management and focus at work and has now fully returned to her job.

    

2. For Ms. B, years of charitable service had woven a sanctuary for vulnerable children—until her body began signaling distress. One day, her fingers started trembling uncontrollably. She consulted medical professionals multiple times, asking what this inexplicable pain was, but the answer caught her off guard – her mind had caught a “cold” (she was experiencing a mental health crisis).In January 2024, with the help of the UFCH, Ms. B stepped into a counseling clinic for the first time. The counselor built a safe harbor for her with professionalism and gentleness. Through continuous professional dialogue and guidance, Ms. B gradually learned how to voice buried pain and exhaustion. She began to understand that her trembling finger was a sign of her soul needing comfort.

    

   To date, UFCH has funded 38 counseling sessions for Ms. B. Now, Ms. B has not only regained inner peace but continues her charity work with renewed passion, bringing hope to more children with her love and resilience.

 

 

Beyond charity workers, many struggling families also bear the immense pressure brought by mental illness.

 

One day in May, the Foundation received a plea for help from a father. His daughter had been diagnosed with a mental illness years earlier and required long-term treatment. After several hospitalizations, the family’s savings were exhausted. The father sought help everywhere. After many twists and turns, he finally reached out to UFCH. The Foundation stepped in to cover critical costs, enabling her discharge. Today, her condition stabilizes under ongoing monitoring—a lifeline for a family once lost in darkness.

 

Guarding souls requires collective resolve. UFCH has provided professional evaluation and assistance to many seeking help for psychological/psychiatric needs. Every burdened heart deserves warmth; every caregiver merits protection. Mental health is the foundation of love and the source of enduring strength. Together, we can ensure no struggle stays invisible, nurturing wounded spirits back to bloom.
