impact
Shàn is a mandarin Chinese word that translates to "do good." A Chinese philosopher named Liezhu says that one should do good without focusing on being recognized, but as a result, recognition will come. We believe the same - we prosper by doing good. And, when one part of a community is strengthened - more educated, better employed, more self-sufficient or engaged, everyone's quality of life benefits. Let us help you make the greatest impact possible.
