Able2Shine Foundation

Introduction:

Able2Shine Foundation is a non-profit with a focus on soft-skill cultivation among young Asian Americans. It carries out social responsibility through charity fundraising and community services.

We have organized in the past three years more than 150 events including performances, fundraising, mentorship and trainings. On a solid track record of community service and social responsibility, we keep sending children performers to senior homes at holiday seasons, presented the Chinese new year celebration show in 15 schools across the bay area since last year, collaborated with other organizations to donate for special needs children, inferno-devastated Napa Valley and Sonoma County schools, orchestrated cross-cultural activities and sponsored Chinese art troupes to showcase in Bay Area schools.

Able2Shine has sponsored more than 30 Lunar New Year celebrations in 2017,  2018 & 2019 across public and private schools in Northern California.. Moreover, we have collected $100,000 through three large-scale community fundraisers to assist the underprivileged and special needs children, and another $15,000 for two schools that were affected by the 2017 Santa Rosa wildfire.

Meanwhile, we keep expanding our partnership and business scopes in both the United States and China. Our key partners include the China Children’s Theatre, San Jose Children’s Museum, The Gilroy Garden, China National Intangible Culture Heritage Society, the Fremont Unified School District, Friends of Children with Special Needs, the Joey’s Wings Foundation, just to name a few.

We also mentor, orchestrate tailored programs, and create opportunities for children at our Shine4Love Teens Club, a subsidiary of Able2Shine Foundation.
