As the saying goes, that which does not kill us makes us stronger. 41-year-old Chen Shuangcheng, who lost his left leg at the age of 19, now helps people with disabilities in his hometown escape poverty.

The clothes shop Chen runs at Yanmen town in Wenchuan county, Aba Tibetan and Qiang autonomous prefecture in Southwest China’s Sichuan province, focuses on making Qiang ethnic costumes.

“I earned a gross revenue of around 80,000 yuan ($12,566) through selling Qiang ethnic costumes in 2017,” Chen said.
