So I gave him my pencil and he just lit up with joy. I realized he never had been to school before, and that was the reality for 57 million children around the world," Braun said.__________________ "We live in a world in which every single child can have access to quality education, because we have everything necessary already. We have the capability of educating every child. So I became immensely committed to helping create that world," Braun said. Mr. Braun raised money for his project by using social media. He paid for building the first Pencils of Promise school, in Laos, five years ago. Since then, his group has helped pay for more than 200 schools in rural areas of Laos, Nicaragua, Guatemala and Ghana. Braun 说:"我以为他的答案要么是"一座房子"要么是"一辆汽车"或"一艘船",他的回答是"一支铅笔",所以我给了他铅笔,小男孩雀跃起来.我意识到他之前从未上过学,而这就是全球0.57亿儿童面临的现实."_______________ Braun 说:"我们生活的世界每个小孩都有权利获得优质教育,因为我们已经具备所有必要条件.我们有能力让所有孩子都接受教育,所以我积极投身到创造这样一个世界."Braun先生通过媒体为该项目集资,五年前他在老挝创建了第一所"希望铅笔"的学校,此后,他的团队已经在老挝、尼加拉瓜、危地马拉和加纳的农村地区资助了超过200所学校.
