Those who destroyed rooting for their goods on the ground, but there was worse to come. It turned out The Money had you given - or at least the vast majority of reached it - never, Wy Huayan. Official records seem to suggest that only 20,000 yuan ($2,900; £2,225) was paid for her hospital bills.

It has a lot of questions: how in the world The System has let this young woman down and who exactly is to blame?

The Campaign to rescue Wu Huayan

emaciated The first images of Wu Huayan - your 135 cm (4 ft 5ins) visibly - were published in October. You and your brother, have understood, Mental Health issues, was relying on an aunt and uncle for support, but they were only 300 yuan ($43. 60; £33. 45) each and every month. After her brother, the doctor bills, there were only two yuan A Day left for Miss Wu ' s dinner.

Immediately, people began to donate. The Money was raised by Charity-9958, a project in the framework of the China Charities Aid Foundation for children (CCAFC), with two different funding platforms. It was intended to help pay for the heart Surgery .

The fundraising page attracted tens of thousands of yuan

But it never happened. According to reports, Miss Wu never gained enough weight to have the Surgery . According to official media, she died weighed less than 30 kg, if.

The cases of corruption

a few days before her death, a scandal began to emerge. A state media outlet, called The Cover defendants 9958 run "a deadly fraud".

Zheng Hehong, a prominent activist and former employees 9958, came out in the claims, The Charity was looking particularly ill or vulnerable people, And Then to hold the withheld funds as part of a Trick to, the proceeds for as long as possible.

"they waited, until the patient died, so they could be the interest income," she said to Phoenix New Media's Ifeng. com. "The income, by law, can be given as an employee incentive instead of the charitable help. "

say, But The Charity has hit back,, it was on The Money at your desire to have a family. She said that it had not been paid, because they did not have the criteria necessary to undergo the Surgery , and it was planned to be the medium thereafter.

don't tell a well-known The Cover , that Ms Wu didn't know, about 400,000 yuan of money.

Miss Wu came to the hospital with respiratory complaints

Then, further complications: 9958 said it had. stopped to raise donations for Miss Wu said, according to the local government officials that they "Take Care " in the third-year student at the University and your family

The city, said she would be in contact with the 9958.

A bigger problem?

But all this is so easy? There are a number of high-profile scandals related to Chinese charities in the past few years, the journalist David Paulk has a Twitter thread.

they belong to Set Up aid organizations to help the girl, but gave The Money to the boy, and a used duplicate photos as he encouraged people to donate to impoverished children,

But Vice versa, the CCAFC - the parent company of the 9958 has been named China the transparent charity-2019 "to a Perfect Score of 100 ".

images of the eight-year-old Wang were shared tens of thousands of times

Anyway, BBC Monitoring, Kerry Allan said that China's official media have confirmed that "chaos and confusion" in the China charity industry. The official China Daily says that it say "too many overlapping authorities and liabilities", and pleaded for a better regulation, that

The advertising around stories like Ms Wu ' s not accused of Links to charity organisations wary of taking on in similar cases, out of fear of the consequences, to do enough.

The South China Morning Post noted that Wang Fuman, an impoverished student, granted she has touched The Nation 's heart after a picture of him went viral, with frost in his hair, a happy end, by offered a place at a Private School . However, because of the intense additional scrutiny by The Authorities and the pressure of the media could not cope in The School "".

China's state media was also exploiting carefully about the potential of the families, their kids for online fame and donations. Wang Fuman's father Inkstone told news that donations have been held to his son back at accusations The Family were "greedy" and distributed to the other "ice boys".

disagree, But the reports that a "happy End" in such cases, never reaches Mainland China , where the media is heavily regulated.

Therefore, Ms Wu ' s death, Social Media users upset in the country, and led to conjectures that local governments take a cut of charity money for themselves. Many of you have noticed, scandals, where.

the primary aim of The government is likely to shift all the blame away from their officers, how they have worked hard to paint them in a slightly positive and point to the successes in the fight against poverty.

China's Communist party has said it wants to eliminate Extreme Poverty by the end of 2020, trumpets-success in places such as Jiangsu province - the claims.

stories like that of Ms Wu and her Little Brother , then, are not what you want to see in the Headlines .
