Fan has been doing her own charitable project, Heart Ali, to help cure children with congenital heart diseases in the Ali district in Tibet autonomous region. The project was initiated in 2010, and every year, Fan will go to Tibet herself and bring children in need of surgery to Beijing or Shanghai for operations.
