Dear Friend,

CARE-Venture International (CVI) was birthed out after a trip to Yunnan in 1998 where I see poverty and the struggles people are going through trying to survive and make a living.  There are various non-profit organizations and many are involved in charitable humanitarian work, and I wanted CVI to be different and I focus a lot on sustainable community development instead.

In traditional charitable community work, funds are raise to help people and often it has the aspect of capacity building incorporated into the project.  However, often these projects are not integrated for an effective sustainability and development in mind.  This is because the various projects are executed by different individuals who has their own specific vision and plan, and often not integrated as a holistic strategy.

In our project, we put deep consideration what we are doing and how they are integrated.  This allows us to release much of the execution to the communities allowing them to rise up and be involved in the holistic development of their communities.  It is actually not that difficult if we understand that we are living in system, and how various aspects of life can affect us.

My passion is to see more and more people getting involved in becoming a person that transform communities, thus I am setting up this website into a complete system where people can be equipped, linked up in a network of like-minded people and involved in transforming communities.

I want to invite you to offer me your ideas, suggestion and feedback, so that I can look into it and come out with something that will help you become effective in touching the lives of others around and beyond…

Wish you a life that impact others,

Peace and grace
