My Story

I grew up between China & Switzerland so have always had a strong connection with this country. After all the years spent here I wanted to be able to give something back, so after a bit of searching I decided to volunteer for Wokai for 9 months in 2010. It was an amazing experience and I'm really happy to have been able to contribute to this great organization.

Why I Give

My family has a long history of contributing to charity and social work, and after my time with Wokai I figured it would be a pity to stop helping.

  What should I plan for my business this year? -- Due to the train station relocation project last December my 'annex' shop had to be shifted too and as a result of this my husband and I both managed our main business. We both had some free time and didn't feel tired and turnover was also very good. This year I plan to move with the train station and continue with the subsidiary shop, increasing business turnover.

  We are now preparing for the lunar new year -- Winter is going to end soon, ushering in the lunar new year. Thus, we are currently busy with new year preparations. My son began having his kindergarten holiday from late November onwards while my daughter is going to end exams and start her holidays in two days' time.
