Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

On March 8, 2018, in celebration of International Women's Day, the Chinese Embassy in Seychelles donated 50 gift bags to all the nine elderly homes around Mahé, Praslin, and La Digue. The gift bags included daily consumables such as juice, biscuits, and powder milk. Chinese Ambassador to Seychelles Yu Jinsong personally donated the gifts to the elderly women at the La Retraite Home for the Elderly, while the Chinese Embassy provided the gifts to Seychelles' Ministry of Family Affairs for delivery to the other nursing homes. The monetary value of this donation is unknown, but its funds were sources from the proceeds of a charity sale at the 5th Seychelles "China Day" temple fair in February 2018
