Non profit org launches fundraising event for China kids


Just how many stories have we heard about the poverty, lack of education-related programs, lack of access to proper nutrition and even cases of HIV/AIDS infection among children in China? Bet you will say that you have heard many. Too many, in fact. Not only have we heard of these many stories in the past but bet you continue to hear these sad stories. And no child whether from China or not deserve that kind of life.

Good thing there are non-profit organizations such as Le Kids (www.lekids.org) whose members have made a lifelong commitment to help the disadvantaged children in rural China. Le Kids aims to help children get what they truly deserve - access to education, proper health and nutrition and good quality of life that will prepare them to face a better future and be stronger, more empowered citizens of their country.


The Le Kids organization is so committed to achieving these goals that they will even spearhead a fundraising event from Xian to Beijing. The event, dubbed “Warriors to Wall Ride,” will start on May 6 to May 10, 2011. “Warriors to Wall Ride” is an endurance cycling event from Xian, from the home of the ancient Terra-cotta Warriors to iconic Great Wall of China, and which will finish at Tiananmen Square in Beijing. The challenging route will take riders on an unforgettable journey visiting World Heritage sites and world famous attractions in Mainland China.

Participants of this fundraising event will include at least 20 executives and senior manager from Accor, a network of world class hotels and resorts. All the money raised will go to the Chi Heng Foundation, which does not only provide education to HIV/AIDS impacted children but also memorable experiences all designed to lift a child’s spirit and make them smile.

Have a healthy lifestyle with Edible Arrangements!


Health. Diet. Green. Organic. Nutrition. These seem to be the by-words these days. It’s like we’re reminded of the need to go back to the “basics” - to what’s really important and to things that may seem elementary but really matter. Suddenly, we’re facing a truth: that everyone seemed to be in such inexplicable hurry the past few years that companies used to cater to those who were fond of all things “instant.” Alas, that’s no longer the main concern these days. These days, the “in” things are healthy lifestyle, good diet and fruit nutrition. Yes, you read that right - fruit nutrition.

After all, aren’t fruits good for the body? They’re literally nature’s delicious gifts to us and while we know they’re good for our health, we either have no time to purchase them, let alone have the luxury of time to choose the freshest ones, yes?


Enter Edible Arrangements Hong Kong. Did you know that they produce hand sculpted fruit arrangements made to resemble flowers in bloom? Take their Easter Party edible arrangement for instance. It’s one delectable looking festive treat composed of pineapple daisies, strawberries, cantaloupe and honeydews and grapes topped with chocolate covered pineapple bunnies. It’s a merry mix of yellows, reds, yellow orange and greens…and yes, browns for the chocolate! It’s an edible arrangement that will not only make for the best gift but can also be the star of your party! It can even be a great conversation piece!

So as you can see, fruit nutrition isn’t all that difficult to achieve. With those talented folks over at Edible Arrangements Hong Kong, you can be sure of the freshest fruit picks and, with a dash of magic entirely of their own, one tasty treat!

Order today! Delivery can be made the same day if you place your order before 4 pm. You can also drop by the Edible Arrangements shop at IFC Mall, Podium Level, Three Shop 3012

Edible Arrangements is fits for all Festivals!

Festivals are a big part of every culture and tradition around the world. They’re events that celebrate something unique or important in a certain area. They’re events that highlight various things, people, patron saints, seasonal changes, significant occasions in history or even hobbies! Think wine festival, rock festival, storytelling festival or even beer festival!

Who doesn’t like attending festivals? Truth be told, there are a lot of people who even travel far and wide just to attend festivals in other areas because they know that festivals spell fun, merrymaking, music, dancing, food…and more food!

And what better way to “crash” a festival than by bringing with you a special hand-sculpted gift arrangement from Edible Arrangements Hong Kong? Think of the freshest, premium grade quality fruits designed to look like garden fresh flowers! Think pineapples made to look like daisies accompanied by chocolate dipped strawberries, grapes on a stick, cantaloupes and honeydews - all arranged oh-so-beautifully that you may need to wonder over and over again how such a delectable looking arrangement can be edible!


Forget traditional hampers - who wants them when you can have a delicious (and healthy!) edible arrangement that you can either have to yourself or share with your friends? Besides, traditional hampers are usually composed of a mix and match of stuff that most of the time do not get used right away. Or worse, the stuff may even end up getting recycled as “gifts” to others!


Thankfully, that will never happen with your treats from Edible Arrangements Hong Kong. Not only are these creations designed to whet your appetite (and be a visual feast, really) but all arrangements are designed to satisfy you, your loved ones, your friends or your colleagues down to the last bite! Order your treat today and be the star of every festival!
