Yang Yuanqiang experienced pain and discomfort from infections after his body rejected a lung transplant. However, he was quickly overjoyed by the kindness of strangers.

In March, more than 300,000 yuan ($42,000) was raised for the 63-year-old by nearly 5,000 people via Fun in Funding, an online fundraising platform.
