The Jenzabar Foundation Announces its Official Status as a Public Charity

 The Jenzabar Foundation announces its official status as a public charity. This new authorization allows The Foundation to raise additional money from the general public and others to expand its outreach and better support the good works of student leaders on college and university campuses as well as and non-profit organizations.
 
Previously receiving its funding solely from The Jenzabar, Inc.  The Jenzabar Foundation can now partner with other foundations, corporations, and individuals that also recognize the value of student led community service and volunteerism. "The public charity status will open a world of new opportunities for us to raise funds and build new partnerships as we strive to support the next generation of leaders who will change our world for the better," said Robert A. Maginn, Jr., Chairman of the Jenzabar Foundation and CEO and Chairman of Jenzabar, Inc.


Supporting the Advancement of Human Rights

The recipient of The Jenzabar Foundation’s Heroic Leadership Award, Fang Zheng, was featured in a Wall Street Journal story titled "Dancing With Fang Zheng." The story about the Tiananmen Square student leader includes quotes from the Chairman of the Board of Advisors for The Jenzabar Foundation, Ling Chai.

On the occasion of the twentieth anniversary of the Tiananmen massacre, The Jenzabar Foundation formally honored Fang during The Foundation’s Annual Student Leadership Awards ceremony in May 2009. As Chairman of the Board of Advisors for The Jenzabar Foundation, Ling honored Fang for his heroic leadership in June 1989, when government tanks and soldiers killed and injured thousands of demonstrators. Fang Zheng, one of the many student activists caught in the attack, ultimately lost his legs after trying to protect another student.

Now others are joining us to advance his cause by donating medical help to enable Fang Zheng to "dance again." See the Wall Street Journal story “Dancing With Fang Zheng: The sprinter's legs were crushed by a tank at Tiananmen”
