Description of Our Community: Hualien is the most beautiful backyard of Taiwan, and Feng Lin town is a traditional agricultural Hakka district in the center of Hualien County. In Hakka tradition, they show great respect towards teachers and take education very seriously. Shan Shing village is located in Feng Lin town Hualien County, with Ocean mountain range on the east and on the west divided apart from the rest of the villages by Hualien River.

Project Description: An unfortunate incident took place in Feng Lin Town 30 years ago that shocks the nation. Two teachers drowned on the way to Shan Shing Elementary School; they were trying to cross through Hualien River on foot. Being a member of Feng Lin we do not want to see such sorrow become a fading memory, and also we want let our own local children get to know the local stories. And we hope through our research we can let everyone know there were two teachers who were passionate about life & education.
