Eunice Brock, a 90-year-old American, holds
her award after winning the title as one of the "10 People Who Moved Shandong
Province in 2006"
at a ceremony in Jinan on Thursday. She received the honor for
donating more than 300,000 yuan (US$38,462) to buy computers for schools, build
roads and plant trees in her adopted permanent home of Liaocheng City.
Brock was born and spent her early days in China where her parents worked
as Christian missionaries. She left in 1930 but, after her husband passed away,
returned to Shandong in 1999. |
