Home Sweet Home

Home Sweet Home cares for those with special needs, builds their character in a loving home environment and develops their skills through education, training and employment.

Austcham Shanghai supports the Training & Job Placement Program. This program provides transformational opportunities for homeless disabled people to gain life skills, vocational skills and technical skills which enables them to gain employment and independent living after 2 years with Home Sweet Home. Funds will help to cover the rent for training facilities.

Mifan Mama

Mifan Mama was founded in early 2009 by a group of expatriates visiting a privately run orphanage in rural Anhui. Seeing the need there they returned to Shanghai with a determination to improve the quality of life for the children there. First was food. Rice and other basic staples were delivered monthly and with the support of United Family Hospital Staff, several children received medical assistance in Shanghai and had life enhancing and life saving surgeries. The scope of assistance grew and out of that came other projects - Boxes of Love, Medical Support, Education Support and most recently in June 2012, Shining Star, a residential foster care facility for blind and partially sighted orphans based in QingPu District.

Since opening Shining Star it has been increasingly obvious that many children suffering from visual difficulties also have other problems, many of which are mobility related. Many of these problems can be alleviated with simple physical therapies to ensure the children are able to move around safely and benefit from the training.

Since February 2014 Mifan Mama has been a registered charity in the UK.

AustCham Shanghai provides funding for specialist equipment for pediatric physical therapy. These funds help to improve the physical and occupational therapies offered as part of life skills and self-care programmes and open the door to children residing in other orphanage facilities in Shanghai.
