Saturday, Oct 16, 2021 was a record breaking year of attendance with over 600 guests, and a record-breaking year of impact. On behalf of the Shenzhen Charity Federation, thank you so much, Shenzhen, for confirming once again what an amazing community of people you are. We are also thankful to the wonderful team at the Futian Shangri-la, Shenzhen, for working with the Captivating team and volunteers to put on an amazing event.

“Together, we were definitely ONE”, and as a result of the generosity of everyone who attended, 1,000 lives (single moms, young women, and children) across Yunnan, Qinghai, Sichuan, and Guizhou provinces will feel the direct result of your support.

We can confirm an amazing record-breaking RMB 1.82 million was raised thanks to this event. Because of this, over the coming 12 months:

• 90 women will be trained as assistant chefs and professional tailors, enabling them to provide better support to their 200 children and aging parents
• 450 underprivileged students will be supported through another year of senior high or vocational school
• 20 volunteer teachers will be supported and sent across remote schools, helping 1,000 primary school students through the next school year

Saturday, Oct 17, 2020 – In a year where so many people are finding life challenging due to COVID, we have been once again  so humbled by the generosity shown by our Shenzhen and wider community.

Although an exact result is yet to be finalized, early indications indicate we have raised RMB1.26 million. WE ARE THRILLED.  SHENZHEN, YOU ARE AMAZING!
