Detailed description of the Caring for the Destination Initiative:

This tour helps to provide financial and volunteer support for  ‘Sun Village', a non-government charity organisation dedicated to providing foster care and education for the children of convicts. As well as providing special education, psychological counselling, rights protection and vocational training; a stable and warm family environment is also created to enable them to grow up happy and healthy, and give them all the opportunities in life they should have.

Because the children at Sun Village are neither orphans nor physically disabled, they are ineligible for government subsidies. Quite often, they are shunned by society due to their family background. Many end up without shelter, begging, abandoned and even abused.

Over the last decade, Sun Village has provided valuable assistance for more than 800 of these children. Currently, 200 children reside at Children's Villages in Beijing, Xi'an, Xinxiang (Henan Province) and Long County (Shaanxi Province).
