Remember Xixi?

On 4 April, 2018, we celebrated International Children's Day. Much of Christian Action's work focuses on children, so this holiday is close to my heart. We don't always get to see immediate change in work like this, but when we do see it, we are very glad to celebrate!

Remember Xixi? She was born in 2013 and raised in Xining Children's Home. Here's an update on where and how she is today.

A Mother's Thoughts for Mother's Day

I am the proud mother of my son Danial, and through our work at Christian Action, I am also the mother of many of the abandoned and disabled children in Qinghai. They call me 'Cheung Mama' when I visit them!

Our work at Christian Action is funded by the generosity of donors, and over the years, we have developed social enterprises that further reach our Hong Kong neighbours while also funding our programmes in Qinghai.

Mother's Day is a perfect time to tell you about one of our recent ventures. It is The Olive Leaf*, a floral shop located in Tsuen Wan West MTR station. The aim is to share the joy of flowers with the neighbourhood while providing employment for low-income people. In addition to selling flowers, one of the goals of The Olive Leaf* is to offer workshops that will equip people to work in the floral industry.

I send you kindness and love this Mother's Day, whether you are a mother or plan to celebrate a mother in your life. And if you are looking for something special to share love with a mother in your life, consider purchasing from the olive leaf*. You will be multiplying your impact with that simple act!

To find the perfect bouquet for your mother or mother figure, visit the website or visit the shop at Tsuen Wan West MTR.

Happy Mother's Day to all mothers reading this post!
