Vegetarian Diet for Charity

Vegetarian Diet for CharityJuan Zi, Roundabout’s celebrity supporter, invites you to join our once-a-week vegetarian meal for charity.

Roundabout has set up a “vegetarian fund” & we ask that you support this initiative by donating what you would spend on meat to it . The fund will be used to pay for life-saving medical care for sick children in China. For each meal we recommend a donation of 20 yuan. Money from 1500 vegetarian meals would be enough for a heart surgery ; 2000 meals saves a premature baby; 3000 meals enables a match in the bone-marrow bank for a leukemia child.

Together we can make incredible things happen.

Song Zihan was diagnosed with leukemia age two and has spent his childhood in several hospitals receiving chemotherapies and various treatments, and finally a bone-marrow transplant. Many doctors had given up on him, but with his mother’s love & dedication  and Roundabout’s  support Zihan is on his way to a full recovery!

Liu Yuhan, a beautiful little girl was in a fatal traffic accident last November that killed her mother  and left her badly wounded. Roundabout has been able to help with her medical expenses. Liu Yuhan has undergone several reconstructive surgeries and is now able to walk.

These are just a few of the children that Roundabout has been able to help with the support of everyone. We hope to see more people joining our Roundabout Vegetarian Fund so we can help many children in need & give them a chance of a future.

Roundabout Vegetarian Fund
The idea behind Roundabout’s Vegetarian Fund is to “cut-back and donate.” Members of the public are asked to cut-back on meat, eat a vegetarian meal, and donate the approximately RMB 20 saved to the Roundabout fund via WeChat.

Whether you manage to go meatless or not, please donate to Roundabout fromSeptember 7-9. The money raised goes towards helping to treat sick children; for example previous recipients of funding have had heart surgery, bone-marrow matching, respite care, specialist medical care for premature babies, and more.

Since November 2014, Roundabout is eligible to receive public funding in China under the China Charities Aid Foundation for Children (CCAFC), but all funds raised under CCAFC and intended for Roundabout will go directly to the charity.
