This year a supermarket owned Hunhebao Church of Shenyang held an annual bazaar that raised clothes to aid families in need living in remote poor areas.

The charity bazaar news was spread in the middle September through WeChat. Both the believers and non-Christians donated clothes to the church. 

It has collected about ten thousand garments including more than thousand new articles of clothing donated by a clothing trader.The church staff selected qualified garments, classified them, set the prices and hang the clothes to dry in the sun. Part of the clothes were sold on the church's square to raise the postage and the rest were delivered to the places such as Xinjiang and Guangxi.

During the bazaar held in last year, the church issued cards to every donor.When the clothes arrived in the areas, the local adults and children were free to select what they wanted in public places.
