Every year in October, people from more than 90 embassies and international organizations in the world
meet in Beijing to attend the charity event. In 2020, however, the charity award ceremony was held on

in China and international organizations participated in the event both online and offline. There were
only a few participants from private companies, with just two from Japan.
Contributions raised at this charity event will go to children in Jinping County and Malipo County,
