With hands from more than 70 volunteers, on November 27th, 2010 Rotaract Beijing was able to hold Food Collection in three different Carrefour across Beijing and collecting Thirty-five trolleys’ worth of food, filling up two minivans.
It was a great response from kind hearted Carrefour shoppers and the Volunteers also did a great job clustered at the entrance and exit, handing out flyers and asking shoppers to buy extra non-perishable food.
All of the food were sent to to help them get through the winter.
