Also grass-roots NGOs are trying to open up their own financial affairs. But lack of legislation there also is forcing them to rely on self-regulation and make it difficult to earn public trust. Some civilian charity say they're calling for new laws, as Wang Yizhi explains. Second-hand furniture, a borrowed electric projector, a flower pot made from an ice cream cup, China-Dolls are not lavish with their spending. During the past three years, this grass-roots NGO, has been helping to educate children with brittle bone disease, as well as arranging therapy and medical funding. "We receive donations mostly from individuals - small amounts from ten to 1,000 Yuan. We send out emails to each and every donor, no matter how small, telling them where their money is being spent. Since our establishment, we've published monthly, half yearly and annual funding reports on our website. As of this year, we are publicizing our detailed earning and spending reports." Recent public skepticism towards charity foundations has affected the industry's credibility. Huang Rufang says convincing the public to donate is becoming difficult. "The biggest problem comes from people's lack of knowledge. For example, very often, potential donors call us and ask whether we are volunteers or paid staff. I say we are paid staff. Then they decide not to give their money." Huang Rufang says he and his colleagues are hoping for new regulations to end public misunderstanding of charity organizations. Huang says it must be seen as a profession, not a passion. Tough regulations will help earn public trust, as well as attracting more people to work for charities. "Sometimes I'm embarrassed to tell my former classmates I work for a charity. I think any potential regulations should protect the legitimate status of those working in the sector. It should regulate the industry, and standardize and equalize the role of official and civilian charities. All information should be transparent."
