Fuyao Glass Company Partners with We Care Arts: Assembling the Future with Creativity

In a heartwarming display of community spirit and corporate responsibility, Fuyao Glass Company recently partnered with We Care Arts to support the Transition To Work Program. The collaboration resulted in the assembly of 400 art kits, representing 4000 art lessons!!- in just one hour, a testament to the power of teamwork and the shared commitment to making a difference.

A Partnership Rooted in Community

Fuyao Glass Company, known for its innovative glass solutions and commitment to sustainability, has always placed a high value on community engagement. This partnership with We Care Arts, a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering individuals through art, aligns perfectly with their values. By joining forces, the two organizations aimed to create a positive impact on the lives of those participating in the Transition To Work Program. We Care Arts has a long-standing reputation for using the  power of art to enrich the lives of individuals with developmental disabilities, substance abuse disorder and mental health diagnoses.

The Event: Assembling Art Kits with Purpose

The event took place at Fuyao Glass Company's headquarters, where employees from various departments volunteered their time and effort. In a highly organized and enthusiastic environment, Community Relations Manager,  Lei Shi and 20 volunteers from various departments,  worked together to assemble the art kits. Each kit contained a variety of art supplies that participants can use to explore their creativity and develop new skills.

Thanks to meticulous planning and the dedication of everyone involved, the team not only met but exceeded expectations.  The room buzzed with energy as volunteers moved swiftly yet carefully, ensuring each kit was complete and ready to inspire its future recipient.

Impact on the Community

The assembled art kits will be distributed to participants in the Transition To Work Program, giving them the tools they need to engage in creative activities that foster personal growth and skill development. Art has been shown to have numerous benefits, including improving mental health, boosting self-esteem, and enhancing cognitive abilities. For individuals in the program, these kits represent more than just supplies; they are a gateway to new opportunities and a brighter future.

Fuyao Glass Company’s involvement in this initiative highlights the importance of corporate social responsibility. By supporting We Care Arts and the Transition To Work Program, they are investing in the well-being and success of their community. This partnership also serves as an inspiring example for other businesses, demonstrating how collaboration and a shared vision can lead to meaningful change.

Looking Ahead

The success of this event has set a strong foundation for future collaborations between Fuyao Glass Company and We Care Arts. Both organizations are committed to continuing their support for the Transition To Work Program and exploring new ways to make a positive impact. As they look ahead, they are excited about the possibilities for further engagement and the potential to inspire even more individuals through the power of art.
