We are pleased to announce that the Badi Foundation recently entered into a formal agreement with the China Charity Federation establishing the “China Charity Federation-Badi Community Development Fund.” The purpose of the Fund is to support non-profit organizations and projects in China that build the capacity of individuals and institutions in rural areas to contribute to the sustainable development of their communities. The agreement was executed on January 11, 2011 by Mr. Fan Baojun, President of the China Charity Federation, and Mrs. Shareen Farhad, Chief Representative of the Badi Foundation’s Beijing Representative Office.

A group of four women who participated in an Environmental Action Program training offered by one of the community-based organizations the Badi Foundation is partnering with in Yunnan Province wasted no time in putting what they had studied into action.
