November 29th, 2023 was an important day for Jiayuan Charity as we were invited to the Chinese Consulate of Melbourne. We were warmly welcomed by Consulate General Wang, who was eager to cooperate with and learn more about our organisation. This meeting was a significant milestone for Jiayuan Charity, both providing opportunities to establish connections with greatly influential figures and gain valuable support for our causes in the future.
Being able to represent the young Chinese-Australian community is an honourable privilege for Jiayuan, and having the support of the Chinese Consulate affirms the importance of our position. Their sponsorship in our charity events also reinforces the legitimacy of our operation and highlight our seriousness in making our events as impactful as possible.
During the meeting, the leaders each introduced their respective roles in our organisation, and emphasised that they are aiming to nurture a younger generation of future leaders to continue the influence of our charity. Consul Wang expressed her “appreciation of our cause” and that she was “impressed that [kids our age]” are willing to sacrifice our time and effort into making real contributions.
As the meeting concluded, we agreed to work together in our future major charity events such as our annual charity concert. Having their support in our events greatly accentuates the importance of our mission, which is why we are so thankful for their eagerness to cooperate with and promote our organisation.
Jiayuan Charity would like to give their utmost appreciation for the Chinese Consulate for endorsing us in our journey to make our impact in the world. We ensure that your passion and support for our community is honoured through our actions.
