and principal in China at schools similar to those sponsored
by the Phelex Foundation. Ms. Li founded an "all girls"
school to make sure that a good education was made available
to all children, not just the boys. With her emphasis on the
importance of getting a good education and serving others, Ms.
Li has provided a strong and positive influence on thousands
of children in China and particularly on her grandson who wants
to honor her memory by having this project named after her.
