This past weekend, The Boston University China Care Fund (BUCCF) hosted a craft table at the 26th Annual Oak Street Fair in Boston’s Chinatown. The Oak Street Fair is a wonderful event full of free family friendly activities, entertainment and food that brings together the Greater Boston Chinese community. The event was hosted by the Boston Chinatown Neighborhood Center and sponsored by many companies and organizations, along with Platinium Sponsors State Street and Tufts Medical Center. Community groups such as Jumpstart, the YMCA, and the Boston Chinatown Neighborhood Center Programs held informational tables to attract people to the great programs that they offer to support the community’s residents. Performances occurred throughout the event such as a lion dance group, dance performances, and a magic act . Kids enjoyed crafts, balloon animals, SnoKones, pony rides, inflatable obstacle courses, and pictures with animals brought by The Creature Teachers and New England Aquarium.
Our BUCCF group hosted a craft table creating paper Dragons to introduce the community to our upcoming Dumpling’s Playgroup. Our playgroups will introduce adopted Chinese children to their culture and give their families a way to connect and network. Our members really enjoyed assisting the children making dragons as well as meeting and speaking to parents, teachers, and community group leaders about enriching the lives of Chinese orphans. Below are a few pictures of our booth at the event.
