[記者李榮/洛斯阿圖報導] 畫家何遠鳴27日宣布,將捐贈八幅畫作給趙修平夫婦基金會(Ping and Amy Chao Family Foundation),救助甘肅省貧困先天性心臟病兒。由科技人趙修平與太太李鴻麗創立的基金會,至今已資助900多位先天性心臟病童的醫藥費,這次義賣畫所得,將支付七歲病童「紅艷(化名)」的醫藥費,而她也是基金會贊助的第1000位病童。

原籍四川的何遠鳴,是中國人民對外友好協會特聘畫家,曾獲第一屆四川省優秀文藝創作獎。早期他喜歡畫牛,旅美後轉畫馬,所畫的馬兒奔放有力,現在香港Ritz-Carlton酒店大堂天花板上的巨型畫作就是他的作品「天馬行空」。

何遠鳴捐畫共8幅,包括2張136公分x68公分大型作品,以及6張68公分x45公分小型作品。依照北京保利拍賣價格,小張作品價值約4000美元、大張畫作3萬美元,8幅總價約8萬美元。何遠鳴3月初在洛斯阿圖舉行作品捐贈展。

贊助展覽的趙修平曾創辦Caden ce等三家公司。投身病童慈善,是趙修平一有次在媒體上看到一位甘肅媽媽帶著先天性心臟病的小孩到美國求醫,發現甘肅先心病狀況普遍,因此決定投身協助病童的「小紅巾」計畫。加上基金會其他慈善項目,每年預算為100到200萬美元,病童的醫療費用不一,平均每人為1萬美元。

趙修平說,先心病童若不治療恐活不過十歲,甘肅當地病童比例高於其他地方,至今已有900多人透過基金會幫助進行手術,基金會也雇用四位員工處理庶務。

何遠鳴贊助的畫作將資助第1000名女病童「紅艷」。基金會共同創辦人李鴻麗介紹,七歲的紅艷來自甘肅農村,年幼喪父,患有先心病中最嚴重的一種,因缺氧造成手指扭曲,全身發紫,不能走路,只能站三、五分鐘,泰半都蹲著,或由家人輪流背著。

紅艷的母親沒有足夠的錢手術,甚至告訴工作人員她願嫁給任何能支付女兒手術費的人。經基金會審查,紅艷將是小紅巾資助的第1000個孩子,而受惠人數將超過四位數,是基金會的里程碑。

捐贈展時間:3月8日(周六)下午2時30分至5 時30分。3月9日(周日)中午12時至下午5時30分。地點:Los Altos Youth Center(1 N San Antonio Rd, Los Altos)。
