Six of CCTF's projects, including Spring Bud Project and Heng'ai Action, have won a China Charity Award eight times.

In 1989, CCTF launched the Spring Bud Project, to help girls from impoverished families stay in school. The project has since become a leader in promoting girls' education. In 2023, it won the UNESCO Prize for Girls' and Women's Education.

In 2000, CCTF launched the Children's Safety & Health Growth Project (Ankang Project), to pool the strength of society in building a sound social environment for children. The project is designed to provide children with assistance in safety and health, and financial aid.

In 2014, ACWF and CCTF launched the Happy Home for Children Project, to care for rural children whose parents work away from home. The project provides childcare services, organizes cultural and sports activities, and offers family education guidance.

In 2015, the HELLO Kids Project was launched to send warmth and care to children who live in difficulties, and to children affected by natural disasters, by distributing love packages.

In 2023, the Spring Bud Project won the UNESCO Prize for Girls' and Women's Education.

In 2024, the Spring Bud Project was honored as one of the best poverty reduction practices during the 5th Call of Global Solicitation on Best Poverty Reduction Practices Campaign.

The CCTF has always stayed true to its founding aspiration, carried forward the love and faith passed down by charity-minded people, from generation to generation, and spread warmth and created miracles of love. We look forward to working with you to help children fulfill their dreams and guard the bright future of the nation.
