Seventy-nine China Sourcing Fair exhibitors participated in Global Sources' Care & Share charity program, donating three truckloads of trade show display samples to people in need.
Global Sources Chairman and CEO Merle A. Hinrichs said, "This is the third time we've organized the Care & Share charity program and it continues to grow. This April, even more China Sourcing Fair exhibitors opened their hearts to people less fortunate."
The display samples were donated by exhibitors following Global Sources' China Sourcing Fairs, April 12-15 and 20-23 at AsiaWorld-Expo in Hong Kong. Non-profit Crossroads International will distribute the items to people affected by disaster, conflict and poverty around the world. Donated samples include toys, stationery, housewares, furniture and playground equipment.
Director of Crossroads International Sally Begbie said, "These items will have an important impact on the communities and people we serve. We're always very appreciative of the generosity of China Sourcing Fair exhibitors."
Crossroads International is a registered non-profit corporation which takes Hong Kong's quality superseded goods and redistributes them to people in need, locally and internationally. So Crossroads seeks, indeed, to be a crossroads; a place where need and resource intersect.
