Amway One by One

We often give money without really understanding where it goes and who it helps.

Last month, a group of Amway Business Owners in Taiwan decided to visit some of the children that had been helped through the Amway Hope Maker Charity Foundation.

More than 60 volunteers traveled to the Ark Classroom in the remote and impoverished region of Taitung, while they delivered a 100,000 NT ($3,000 USD) donation to support afterschool tutoring and meal programs.

Approximately 80 children from the villages of Tuban, Taiban and Xinhua welcomed the visitors, and spent the day with them.

Each child left with some new friends, and each volunteer left with more wisdom about the needs, and more motivation to make sure each of these children reaches his or her potential in life.
