In recent years, the Pinggu Women's Federation has raised 10 million yuan (U.S. $1.6 million) to promote women's development. The Federation has delivered professional training to over 300,000 rural women. Furthermore, the Federation has launched the campaign of "Happy Bride's Training Session", which delivered lectures to women on the topics of family member relations, household skills and health. In addition, the Federation has organized 1,400 volunteers to take care of 983 single elderly people.
