GUANGZHOU, China, Sept. 29,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Onion Global Limited ("Onion
Global", the "Group" or the "Company") (NYSE: OG), a
next-generation lifestyle brand platform that connects the world's
fresh, fashionable, and future technology-based brands to young
people in China and across
Asia, recently announced that the
Company has donated a batch of daily supplies to the Guangdong
Rural Women Development Foundation ("the Foundation") in an effort
to empower the development of rural areas supported by the
Foundation. The daily supplies were mainly LUCA BRAND products from Onion Global's private
label brand matrix.
The Guangdong Rural Women Development Foundation, China's first private foundation dedicated to
meeting the development needs of rural women, was founded in 2013.
The Foundation focuses on supporting rural women and children in
terms of cultural life, rights and interests, and capability
building by funding and implementing projects that provide
resources and support for rural women to improve their living
conditions. As of 2021, the Foundation has supported 153 rural
women's associations, and has provided help in the form of
financial support and offline training for rural women across 181
villages.
Some of the initiatives to empower women supported by Onion
Global's charity program include:
- Offering entrepreneurial opportunities specifically for women
through Onion Global's platform;
- Enabling industry to create opportunities for poverty
alleviation by leveraging female key opinion consumers ("KOCs") to
drive live streaming sales;
- Organizing embroidery training courses in which Miao batik
craftswomen provide skills training for women in the Qiannan Buyei
and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, thereby boosting local economic
growth.
Mr. Cong (Kenny) Li, Founder, and
CEO of Onion Global, commented, "Since the rural revitalization
strategy was proposed in the report
of the 19th National Congress of the
Communist Party, China has
committed to upholding principles including the principal position
of farmers, integrated urban-rural development, harmonious
coexistence between humans and nature, and development tailored to
local conditions. To help rural women master new skills and
increase their employment opportunities and income, Onion Global
has leveraged hundreds of thousands of female KOCs on the platform
to open up sales channels for agricultural products for rural women
through live streaming sales and new media platform training. With
these efforts, Onion Global has achieved value co-creation with
rural women by integrating its business model with its charitable
activities. With the Foundation's help, Onion Global has promoted
sustainable economic development in the rural ecological
environment, ultimately increasing the happiness and prosperity of
the people in rural areas. By empowering rural construction with
Internet, Onion Global will help rural areas to develop industries
suited to local conditions, drive the development of surrounding
villages, and improve the living and economic conditions of groups
in need by focusing on women's employment, support for children and
education as well as building cultural life. Onion Global endeavors
to increase awareness and inspire action on issues related to women
and rural ecology through its charitable donations. Going forward,
Onion Global is committed to fulfilling its corporate social
responsibility, exploring more charitable projects by capitalizing
on its own advantages, incorporating charity into its corporate
culture, caring for women's growth, and giving back to society.
Onion Global hopes to achieve a synergistic development between the
corporation and society, thereby making significant contributions
to local economic and social development."
