			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img title="Lotus Range" src="http://www.charitygifts.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/12298211.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="160" align="right" />That&#8217;s right folks, you can now purchase acclaimed chef Kylie Kwong&#8217;s first ever range of tableware at the <a title="Fair Trade" href="http://www.charitygifts.com.au/oxfam-fair-trade-shop-australia.php" target="_self">Oxfam Fair Trade store</a>! This amazing selection of cups, plates and bowls were specially designed in conjunction with Mai Vietnamese Handicrafts, an <a title="Oxfam Australia" href="http://www.charitygifts.com.au/oxfam-fair-trade-shop-australia.php" target="_self">Oxfam Australia</a> Fair Trade partner based near Hanoi in North Vietnam.</p>
<p><strong>This amazing little workshop was set up over 20 years ago</strong> to support street children and features mostly women. Since those early days in 1990, the company now employs the mothers and sisters of the original street children, and they are paid a decent wage thanks to Fair Trade support.</p>
<p>Kylie Kwong herself designed the graphics for her stunning &#8216;Lotus&#8217; tableware, and as you can see from the picture this simple but elegant range would make a stunning addition to any home.</p>
<p>Miss Kwong said -</p>
<blockquote><p>I wanted to create a design that was not only aesthetically pleasing but which also had great depth and a wonderful story to it. As part of my inspiration I looked towards the symbol of the lotus flower. To me the lotus is such a deep and meaningful symbol, which represents femininity, spirituality, and the importance of nature and the environment.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>This great range of items will be available to purchase from the Oxfam Fair Trade store on Saturday 1st October 2011</strong>, simply click on the link below to find this range and many more <a title="charity gift" href="http://www.charitygifts.com.au/charity-gifts-australia.php" target="_self">charity gift</a> ideas.

<p>Kicking off early at Mt. Glorious in Brisbane, the 300 teams, made up of four competitors, will travel the equivalent of <strong>more than two marathons simultaneously</strong>. The Trailwalker event was originally used as a military training exercise by Gurkhas, and this year will be it&#8217;s first time in Brisbane after 12 years in other cities. During this time, <strong>over $35 million has been raised to help Oxfam&#8217;s work around the world</strong> <strong>and in Australia</strong> to help people overcome poverty.</p>
<p>Oxfam Executive Director, Andrew Hewett, said -</p>
<blockquote><p>Despite all the recent major catastrophes over the last year it is due to the outstanding commitment of Queensland participants and their generosity of spirit that we can hold Oxfam Trailwalker Brisbane and raise vital funds for the work we do around the world. I cannot thank them enough for taking up the challenge. Oxfam Trailwalker Brisbane is expected to be the most challenging Trailwalker held in Australia to date and we expect the spectacular mountainous bushland and fauna will exhilarate our walkers to go the distance.</p></blockquote>
<p>Participants travelled through D’Aguilar National Park, Lake Manchester, through the Gold Creek and Brookfield, before finally climbing to the top of Mt Coot-tha to finish. Teams travelled from Hong Kong, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Christchurch, America, England and China to participate in one of Australia&#8217;s greatest team events in a great, if gruelling way to help Oxfam&#8217;s tireless work both at home and abroad.</p>
<p>Well done to all those that took part and helped raise millions for Oxfam Australia.</p>
