November 2021 - "Shop Social" is the theme of this year's Tithe Ethical
Consumption Movement (TECM), organized by Fullness Social Enterprises Society
(FSES). TECM has organized a wide range of online and offline promotional
activities with various social enterprises. In addition to the newly enhanced TECM
MALL and the annual Shopping Rewards Scheme, a Christmas Bazaar will be held in
this coming December 2021! The bazaar will not only feature a wide range of festive
gifts and products from local social enterprises, it also offers various
performances and workshops for families to enjoy! Besides
practicing ethical consumption at the bazaar, attendees can also receive a free goodies bag
filled with love upon playing a simple game related to social enterprise where
attendees will learn more about the story behind every social enterprise.
Through this, we hope all attendees can experience an extra-ordinary Christmas
by "Shop Social and Learn Social".

FSES will

for two consecutive days. There will be over 10 social enterprise booths covering
a wide range of goods and services at the market. As such, Furry Green
transforms leftovers from grocery stores into pet food, Wedo Global has
collaborated with a group of ethnic minorities as sewing Ambassador in
producing stylish mask and head sets, Hair Rejuvenation Clinic who hires
hearing impaired and offers herbal hair treatment products, and Green Ladies
& Green Little sells quality second-hand clothing. FSES strongly encourages
consumers to shift one-tenth of their expenditures towards consumption at
social enterprises as it is one of the ways to fulfil their social responsibility. This will
make the Christmas season more meaningful! What's a better place for families
to celebrate Christmas, come join us at the Shop Social Christmas Bazaar!

environment and raising awareness towards environmental issues. The upcycling
workshop allows participants to rehabilitate recycled wood into useful

resources more.

they combine environment and fashion in one! Ways Out Hong Kong empowers young

Silver Yoga
Think yoga is exclusive for young people? Then
Silver Yoga will
defy everyone's expectations. Silver Yoga is committed to designing yoga classes
for the aged with the intention that they will manage their body health and
achieve great health and longevity. As a result, the burden of an aging population on society and the

senior yoga into a family health exercise to promote harmony across generations.
Children are more than welcome to bring their senior parents to participate.
Anew Toys
How can the children's favourite toys be
missing for children during Christmas? Anew
Toys collects and refurbishes old toys so that children can experience the fun
of sharing toys and regenerate the value of the old playthings. The workshop
allows children to use recycled materials such as fruit nets, old crayons,
waste paper, and wine corks to make new toys. Throughout the creation,
children can experience the fun of
unleashing their creativity, brilliant talent, and developing their problem-solving
ability on their own.

with the society through floral art. The shop is also committed to promote the concept
