In early 2019, the Zhejiang China Christian Council (CCC) & Three-Self Patriotic Movement (TSPM) declared that the first Sunday of every May would be dedicated as "public welfare fund day".

The letter published on its official website said that all the churches across Zhejiang would make special donations on that day and one quarter of the donations would be deposited into a foundation. 

Founded on Dec. 25, 2010, the Zhejiang Light & Salt Love Foundation serves as a charitable social organization devoted to poverty relief, education, disaster relief, elder care and orphan assistance, etc. The foundation carries out projects, launched by churches, including environmental care.
