If you could save lives and provide needed educational opportunities to rural and orphaned children for a few minutes of your time and for free, would you do it?

The dream is to travel in 2007 to every mainland province in China. During this journey, the China Dreamblogue will chronicle the everyday lives of ordinary Chinese citizens. The motivation for this trip came from a group of women known as the League of Extraordinary Chinese Women. The LOECW was comprised of 5 women from various walks of Chinese life—wives, semi-professional women, a bookkeeper, and a student. The one thing they had in common was advanced-stage cancer. These women, with little access to formal education and less information from outside sources about the disease they had contracted, naturally and courageously combated their disease with friendship, enthusiasm, meditation, and the medical care they could afford.

Around this time, Yanzhi and Dawei also met Thomas Stader, an expat who has devoted his time, talents, and treasures to Chinese people educationally and economically left behind by giving them access to life-changing education. The Dreamblogue is an attempt to unite the strength, courage, and stories of people around China and channel it into a force that will help realize the dreams everyone carries.

All of the money generated from the advertising on this site will go directly from Feedburner and Blogads to the charities we support, The Library Project and The Reading Tub. No one at the Dreamblogue will never directly handle the money.

The Blog of Dreams will have videocasts, podcasts, a China picture contest (to be turned into a coffee table book) , a weekly Chinese horoscope, weekly Chinese recipes (also to be a book), and most importantly, the daily dreams of people from around the world. The Dreamblogue has been created to be a tool of understanding and a place where dreams can be spoken into reality.

The other part of the journey is about creating a space on The Dreamblogue where people can blog their dream—they can write about a dream they have for themselves, a dream they have for someone else, or an educational dream they want to fill. There is a Chinese superstition that if you talk about bad things, they will come true. Instead, the Dreamblogue’s vision says that if you share your dream with others, you are willing it into being. Send your dreams to the blog of dreams, and we will post dreams other people want to share with the world.

Help change lives. As Yanzhi and Dawei travel throughout the year, the blog will able to give away a variety of products from different corporate sponsors as well as scholarships to study in China.

你能怎样帮助我们

在一系列我们计划赞助者的文章中，我们决定先介绍中国商务网（The China Business Network）。这是一家国际性咨询服务机构，专门从事与中国有关的国际事务。由Christine Lu建立的中国商务网拥有大量有助于在中国寻找商机的媒体、视频DVD和网络文本。

中国载梦博客与中国商务网具有良好的合作关系。目前，载梦博客的赞助商会获得中国商务网的预先访问视频的特权，而且浏览者可以在中国商务网上看到载梦博客的视频。

首先，我们想强调一点，我们不接受捐款。如果你想捐款，你可以跟我们合作的一些慈善机构联系，例如图书馆计划（The Library Project）或者阅读盆儿（The Reading Tub）。载梦博客会通过为赞助者提供服务作为回报。我们希望得到以下方面的赞助：

 个人或团体：请把我们网址链接到你们网站上，然后点击我们网站旁栏上的绿色按钮，到Technorati网站上支持（favorite）我们。

 我们急切需要两台手提电脑，目前有一台是管理载梦博客的，彦志的手提电脑的荧幕已经坏掉了，我们的另一台电脑被致命的病毒入侵了，所以我们需要有手提电脑继续管理载梦博客，而且在游历中国的旅程中继续维护和更新网站。

 我们希望有2台高质量的照相机帮助我们把在中华之旅所见到的美丽的人物和地方都拍摄下来。

 我们希望有一台高质量的数码摄录机可以记录我们在旅程中遇到的故事。
