7daysofnothing.com is a public welfare event platform launched by Families for Orphans, an orphan assistance program under GLOBAL HAWC. Its core initiative is the "7 Days of Nothing" experience activity: it calls on participants to voluntarily give up some of the conveniences of modern life, to experience for one week living conditions similar to orphans and vulnerable children around the world. After the experience ends, participants donate the money they saved during the challenge to the orphan assistance program. It serves the dual purposes of public welfare fundraising and poverty awareness education.
The platform shares a complete event participation process publicly: participants can join as individuals, families or groups, and choose for themselves which daily conveniences to give up. There is an optional list covering everything from light experiences like disconnecting from the internet or skipping takeout, to intense challenges like carrying water by hand or living without electricity. The platform also provides a goal-setting tool to help participants plan their experience period, and publicly shares information about on-the-ground assistance projects in places like Uganda so participants can learn exactly how their funds will be used. Participation in the event is completely free, the donation amount is decided entirely by the participant, and there is no mandatory requirement.
On the plus side, the platform has innovated the public welfare participation model, breaking down the barrier that "you have to donate a lot of money to do charity". It lets ordinary people participate at low cost, while also helping participants — especially young people — build empathy for issues of poverty, with a particularly strong educational value. All project information is open and transparent, and the process is clear and straightforward.
The main drawbacks are that it does not integrate an online donation channel, so donating after the experience is not very convenient, and it also has no Chinese interface, which makes it unfriendly for ordinary users in China.
This website can currently be accessed directly via the public internet in China. It is a good fit for families with a desire to participate in cross-border public welfare, or those who want to provide public welfare experience education for their children. For ordinary domestic users in China, it is more suitable to participate in projects through local public welfare organizations.
