Another 10 greenhouses - Thanks Nick!

Another 10 greenhouses have been added to the already 173 greenhouses starting to dot the rural landscape of Western China. Thanks to a generous donor named Nick, more families now have the opportunity to grow fresh produce almost all year round.

70% increase in income for 96 families - FOREVER!

Now in our 3rd year of Greenhouse solutions in partnership with our wonderful friends at GPA Global, a family who receives one of our greenhouses will have the capacity to increase their cash income by an estimated RMB4,000 a year (70%). This is SIGNIFICANT, and results in many children going on to complete their schooling who would otherwise be rural school drop-outs.

8 more greenhouses! Thank you QSI Shenzhen

At Captivating, we love it when whole communities get excited about helping other communities. The teachers, students and families of QSI Shenzhen have done just that. With creative fundraising ideas and a lot of community spirit, QSI students and staff were able to raise RMB12,000 (US$1,700). These funds will enable us to bring hope to impoverished families in Western China through Greenhouses.
