8月13日下午，北京大学教育基金会（美国）于加州旧金山湾区中半岛希尔斯堡 (Hillsborough) 的“摩登原始人屋” (Flintstone House) 成功举办捐赠人交流及答谢活动。摩登原始人屋的主人是北京大学名誉校董、北京大学教育基金会（美国）理事、知名侨领方李邦琴女士。经过方女士的精心设计，摩登原始人屋已成为湾区280高速公路上的一处著名景观。
On the afternoon of August 13, Peking University Education Foundation (USA) successfully held a donor event at the Flintstone House in Hillsborough, San Francisco Bay Area, California. The Flintstone House is owned by Mrs. Florence Fang, an honorary trustee of Peking University, board director of Peking University Education Foundation (USA), and a well-known overseas Chinese. After the meticulous decoration by Mrs. Fang, the Flintstone House has become a famous landscape on Interstate 280 in the Bay Area.

本次活动共有30余位北京大学校友及北大之友出席。基金会秘书赖萌女士作为活动主持人作开场致辞，向到场嘉宾表示热烈欢迎，并对摩登原始人屋的主人方女士表示了感谢。
Approximately 30 alumni and friends of Peking University attended the event. As the moderator of the event and the secretary of PKUEF (USA), Ms. Mandy Lai gave the opening speech and welcomed all the guests. Ms. Lai also thanked the host, Mrs. Fang, for providing the beautiful Flintstone House for this event.

在活动中，方女士与到场嘉宾分享了20年来自己与北京大学之间的故事，并介绍了自己捐资支持在北大开展的方李邦琴人文学科文库出版基金与对外汉语教育学院方李邦琴楼两个捐赠项目。方女士指出，北大是中国对外开放的重要窗口，是东西方文明交汇互动的平台和桥梁。北大人始终秉承人类命运共同体理念，凝聚力量，致力于搭建中美沟通与合作的桥梁。
During the event, Mrs. Fang shared her story with Peking University over the past 20 years and introduced the donation projects she supported and were carried out in Peking University, including the Florence Lee Fang Building and Florence Fang Library of Humanities Fund. Mrs. Fang pointed out that Peking University has always been an important window for China’s opening up. It is a platform and a bridge for eastern and Western civilizations to meet and interact. Adhering to the concept of a community with a shared future for humanity, Peking University students and alumni have been dedicated to building a bridge of communication and cooperation between China and the United States.

摩登原始人屋在方女士心中象征着儿时的梦想，其设计和装修中的各处细节和巧思都秉承东西文化交融的理念。方女士就摩登原始人屋与市政府展开的诉讼则是方女士勇敢争取华人权益的实践。
The Flintstone House is a symbol of childhood dreams for Mrs. Fang. Its design and specialization in various details and ingenuity all adhere to blending Eastern and Western cultures. The lawsuit between Mrs. Fang and the city government over the Flintstone House is a practice of Mrs. Fang’s brave fight for the rights and interests of the Chinese-Americans.
