Post subject: Map of Shanghai Umbrella Charity Fundraiser

Dear All.

Shanghaiexpat is rolling the Map of Shanghai Umbrella and 40 RMB of every sale for the first 500 umbrellas will go to help the charities on
http://helpinghandsh.com/. So our goal is raise 20000 RMB with this effort.

Each umbrella is 100 RMB ( 40 going to the charities )

Its a great umbrella! 70cm wide, with a stylish and functional alloy frame, and 6 color printing on the umbrella. Best possible mechanism we could find. Comes in yellow, blue and orange.

You can see one at the Expat Show or pm and we will set you up. Quantities will be limited at the Expat Show.. You will also be able to see them at the events.

We will post the results of this fundraiser effort here and document the transfer to these charities here.

PM me for more info.

We'll probably have a few around. I wouldn't worry. We made a batch of them.
