The first term of the Power of Love Classroom project took place in Shizuishan, Ningxia Hui autonomous region on April 25 at the Longhu Second Station Primary School. At the informative lecture on electrical safety held during the project, children clapped hands and sang electrical safety songs together. Gong Yanhua, the principal of the school, expressed deep gratitude for the care shown by the State Grid Corporation of China.

The Power of Love Classroom is a public welfare project initiated by State Grid Corporation of China and the State Grid Public Welfare Foundation, in collaboration with the China Next Generation Education Foundation. The project aims to supplement education resources for primary and middle school students, as well as children in difficult circumstances. It explores initiatives such as improving school buildings, promoting clean energy usage, providing electrical safety education and promoting volunteer services related to Red education. This project aims to establish a public welfare brand with the characteristics of the State Grid Corporation, as a method to implement the rural vitalization strategy and rejuvenate the Chinese nation through science and education.

During the project, students received donations from State Grid Corporation of China, including footballs, skipping ropes, sandbags, stationery, backpacks, and other useful items for their daily learning and activities. The school, located in the Longhu economic development zone of Ningxia, has a total of 138 students across six grades. Some of the students are raised by their grandparents as their parents work elsewhere. During this event, young volunteers from State Grid Shizuishan Power Supply Company not only provided students with learning and sports equipment but also delivered a lively and engaging lecture on electrical safety. Using the popular cartoon character "Dianxiaobao", the volunteers conducted the electrical safety education interactively, allowing the children to learn about electrical safety in an enjoyable atmosphere. The children were encouraged to become little electrical safety officers at home, guiding their families on safe electricity usage.

Some staff members also donated backpacks and summer school uniforms to children in need. The Communist Party member service team of State Grid Shizuishan Power Supply Company has also been involved in inspecting the school's electrical equipment. They showed care and love to the children's growth and demonstrated the responsibility and commitment of State Grid employees.
