The Abundance of Less - Crowdfunding Update!

Green Initiatives would like to give everyone a big Thank You to all those who have contributed towards The Abundance of Less Comes crowdfunding campaign so far!

We couldn’t do this without you and are excited to see several individuals uniting for a collective purpose. We believe positive changes can be achieved together and that we are getting closer to facilitating a dialogue on simplicity and self-sufficiency in China.

Here’s what our numbers look like, as of January 25th 2018.

As you can see, a start has been made but we still have a long way to go!

Please take a moment to share the campaign on Indiegogo ( credit card only ) and/or Yoopay, an alternative for local contributors in China ( AliPay, WeChat, Union Pay, etc.) .

Should you be interested in working with us as a community partner, please take a look at our Partnership Package found under "Campaign Resources" on our website under " Read More " and contact us at [email protected] !

The Abundance of Less flyers can also be found there for you to spread the word with your family, friends, and followers! They are available in 9 languages.

What IS The Abundance of Less (TAOL)?

TAOL is a book written by Andy Couturier, an American writer, that discusses the life and teachings of ten Japanese individuals, whose way of life points humanity in a direction of greater sustainability and satisfaction

Deeply inspired by Andy, GreenI nitiatives is keen on sharing Andy’s message with the wider community and has initiated a 2-month crowdfunding campaign to raise funds to cover the trip expenses towards bringing Andy and his partner, to China in June 2018. The project will comprise of a number of workshops, talks and book reading sessions with various communities in Shanghai, Beijing and Suzhou, and perhaps in other Chinese cities, funds permitting.

China is undergoing massive urbanization, there is a growing consumption amongst the masses, as can be seen by Alibaba’s Singles’ Day (11.11) sales and there is an increasing percentage of rural-to-urban human migration. These are just a few reasons why we believe that Andy’s message is extremely relevant in this context, not just for China, but for global citizens based in China as well.
