Since 2013 in China, our team has volunteered their time each week to tutor children of migrant workers at the Beijing Lv Yuan Primary School on a variety of subjects, including music, arts & crafts, science, geography and English. Our aim is to equip these children with valuable skills that will help them pursue their dreams. In 2015, we added sessions to teach the children about sustainable urban development. During the course of the program, we have also donated more than 80 laptops and 40 computer desks to the school.
