JMC Wild Forest travels&#13;<br \/>\nto Europe and searches for products, bringing before Hong Kong and Macau people&#13;<br \/>\nquality and reasonably priced natural products from Europe.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>In addition to carefully operating a small&#13;<br \/>\nstore, JMC also pays great attention to social responsibility.

Unfortunately,&#13;<br \/>\nsince the outbreak of the pandemic, the Choir was not able to visit. Therefore,&#13;<br \/>\non Mother&#8217;s Day this year, JMC is glad to launch a Mother&#8217;s Day Gift Set with&#13;<br \/>\nWatoto, hoping to awaken everyone&#8217;s attention vulnerable African women and&#13;<br \/>\nchildren. For every set sold in this event, JMC will donate a large part to&#13;<br \/>\nWatoto for multiple purposes.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p><b>Uganda in Brief<\/b><\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>Uganda is a landlocked country located in&#13;<br \/>\neastern Africa[1]. Here, there are countless single-parent women. Most of them&#13;<br \/>\nhave unfortunately contracted AIDS, were abandoned by their husbands, and were&#13;<br \/>\nunable to raise their children due to severe financial burdens. [2] Most&#13;<br \/>\nmothers are under 30 and have more than 3 children. Many children died of illness&#13;<br \/>\nor hunger on the streets without being cared for.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>Gender equality is not easy in Uganda.&#13;<br \/>\nWomen lack education and functional training, and often use temporary jobs to&#13;<br \/>\nsupport their families. However, once they become pregnant, many men may not be&#13;<br \/>\nable to take responsibility and just leave. Single mothers have to bear all the&#13;<br \/>\nresponsibilities of supporting the family. Even, we women regard it as a&#13;<br \/>\nmonthly affair, which is embarrassing for women in Africa. Many women cannot&#13;<br \/>\nafford the monthly sanitary napkins, and can only sit on the sand during&#13;<br \/>\nmenstruation, secretly burying blood stains.

Watoto&#13;<br \/>\nalso allows them to go to school and receive quality education.
