A History of Charity 

Chi Fan for Charity (CFFC) is a yearly fundraising event that, for the past decade, has mobilized Beijing foodies and restaurants to break bread for a good cause. After selecting a goodwill recipient on an annual basis, CFFC then partners with restaurants across town to donate tables, which foodies then shell out cash to host for groups of friends, thereby turning a regular night out into a lifeline for those in need. 

This year’s recipient is Educating Girls of Rural China, that will dedicate the CFFC funds to sponsor 10 female students so they can complete their undergraduate degrees within the greater Beijing area. Read more about the organization here. Read more about Chi Fan for Charity registration here.
