Welcome to BU to the Class of 2015 and Welcome Back to BU Students!

Welcome to BU (or welcome back returning students)! The beginning of the fall semester and college life is always an exciting time bustling with activity. It can also be an overwhelming time with seemingly endless opportunities, and not enough time in your schedule to do it all. As someone who has expressed interest in our club, here is a quick overview of what we are about.


What is BUCCF?
Boston University’s China Care Fund (BUCCF) is a student run club that supports the international non-profit organization called China Care Foundation. We encourage new members to join us in our mission to provide medical and educational support to orphans in China. We hope that you participate by joining our program as a volunteer or helping us in planning our annual shows.

Why you should join?
We pride ourselves as a group where it is easy to get involved and value quality work over seniority. We strive to be innovative and turn every member’s ideas into a reality. For example, our brand new Dumplings Program is an idea created in March that we will be piloting in September. We hope to foster friendship and create an environment that is fun and enjoyable for all members. Our commitment to fun, innovation, and quality work has won us the 2011 Outstanding Leadership Club Award from our National non profit organization.

What do we do?
This upcoming year, BUCCF will begin a Dumplings Playgroup Program in partnership with the Boston Chinatown Neighborhood Center. “Dumplings” will allow BU students to mentor, teach, and play with children adopted from China so they can explore the Chinese culture. On October 15th, we will be hosting a charity dance show featuring Phunk Phenomenon, with all proceeds funding medical surgeries. We need a lot of help in making these a success. Learn more about our past events on our Website.

We also create a number of social events in order for our members to get to know each other and bond. Past events we had in Spring 2011: a Ski Trip in NH, Hot-Pot in Chinatown,Walk for Hunger (where we raised over $300 to alleviate hunger in MA), and group dinners at various Boston restaurants.
