Charity store

-

A charity store on Shengping Street has reopened to the public with a new look.

It first opened its doors in 2017 and, like many other traditiona­l charity stores, it sold clothes donated by individual­s. But now the renovated store has formed connection­s with companies such as Coca Cola and Bright Dairy to add a bit of variety to the shop.

It encourages local residents and workers to exchange milk with used milk boxes and paper cups to raise their awareness of the environmen­t. It has also opened an online store where people can learn stories behind the donated items.

When it is cold, the shop provides free ginger tea to neighborho­od volunteers, express deliveryme­n and sanitation workers.
