The store was created so that we could support projects which serve China’s orphaned and abandoned children. A Gift From China brings the best in Chinese arts & crafts to visitors to Shamian, many of whom are families who pass through on their adoption journey. Also we are proud to use local artisans and tailors which means that we supporting the local economy empowering women’s co-operatives and ensuring that our items are ethically produced.
Store founder Samantha Jens handed over the services of A Gift From China to Jacqui Shurr who is the director of The Good Rock Foundation. Each month the profits from our store go to support a number of projects such as foster care, education for minority teens & medical needs. We are also able to regularly support other organizations working with orphans. Each month we ship donated toys, goods & clothes to a number of orphanage projects.
Less than 1% of China’s orphan children are adopted overseas we work to serve those who remain.
By shopping with a Gift From China you are helping us bring orphanage children a better life today and hope for their future. We are dedicated to bringing you a wide range of traditional arts and crafts which make unique gifts and memorable treasures for children whose heritage began in China. In 2008 we are working alongside some of the young adult orphans with special needs to bring you products which are unique and help the young people become self sufficient.
Thank you for supporting A Gift From China and helping us keep our vision alive;
Making a difference – One child at a time. |
