    26 Mar 2010 Hong Kong, May 10, 2010: On Friday, May 7th, at a festive fundraiser party and live charity auction at the Marriot Hotel in Hong Kong, Sino Resources Mining Corporation (SRMC) presented Mother’s Choice with a 6.28 carat natural gem quality sapphire, that was live auctioned for HKD $250,000 ($32,100USD). The generous auction result of this unique sapphire attests to the quality and beauty of the sapphire. Proceeds from festive fundraiser party and live charity auction will go towards the operating costs of the various projects that Mother’s Choice undertakes in Hong Kong.

    "We are thrilled that our sapphire was able to raise so much for the charity," said Simon Hsu, SRMC’s CEO, "Our Company is proud to be able to assist such a meaningful organization in Hong Kong."

    Mother’s Choice provides and promotes loving, nurturing care for babies and children needing permanent homes, and for single girls and their families facing crisis pregnancies.

    About Mother’s Choice
    Since 1987 in Hong Kong, Mother’s Choice was a place where pregnant girls could stay until they gave birth to their children. A centre with social workers was set up for the girls so that they could receive counseling and support during and after pregnancy. In 1993, Mother's Choice has extended its services to helping children who are in need of foster care and small group homes.

    In 1995 Mother’s Choice established a presence, known as Mother’s Love, in Mainland China. Located in Nanning, Guangxi Province, China, Mother’s Love has cared for over 1,400 parentless children since 1995. Over the years, Mother’s Love has come to enjoy a reputation within China for pioneering models for orphanage care, foster care, special needs care and adoption, and for training hundreds of local workers and assisting other Chinese institutions to carry out this work themselves.
