Overseeing much of Harmony Kingdom's charitable work on a national level is an important HOP role. With the support of HBC, we strive to support various charitable organizations. This support is achieved with offering various 'unique' HK pieces to collectors. The funds raised, through auctions or raffles, will be donated to the chosen charity for each piece.
We have an ongoing search for 'just the right' charity, at any given time. Suggestions are always welcome. Please send suggestions, along with supporting information, to the HOP Charity Coordinator. |
