“Social contribution and charity work sound like high hurdles…”
If you have ever felt this way, we especially want to introduce you to our 12 Ways to Support Seibo!
In fact, there are many simple ways your daily habits and small pleasures can turn into school meals for children in distant lands and employment for local communities.
In this article, we will introduce each support method in detail, divided into four practical categories!
1. Easy Everyday Support (Through Daily Shopping and Habits)
① Seven Mile Donations
You can exchange your “Seven Miles”—earned naturally through daily shopping—directly into support for school meals. Even if donating cash feels a bit daunting, using your everyday shopping points makes it easy and effortless to start right away.
Check out more details here.
② Using Actcoin
By taking actions related to social contribution, such as participating in events, you can earn coins and use them to provide support. It is a new form of support that visualizes your volunteer activities and learning, making donating fun and game-like.
Event Example is from here.
③ Purchasing Coffee and Cookies
Purchasing coffee and cookies for your own enjoyment through initiatives like “Warm Hearts Coffee Club” directly translates into school meal support. Your usual relaxing break becomes a warm action that supports children’s nutrition.

④ Social Gifts
Give coffee, tea, and cookie gift sets for special occasions like Mother’s Day or seasonal gifting. A wonderful gift expressing gratitude to loved ones also supports communities in Malawi, creating a “double joy” for both the giver and the receiver.

⑤ Using or Installing Charity Vending Machines
Simply buying a drink from one of our vending machines helps provide school meals to children in Malawi, Africa! A donation is made for every drink sold, delivering hot meals directly to children. 《Highly recommended for offices and schools!》
Zero cost (free installation and replacement), zero operational burden (restocking and waste collection handled for you), and flexible choices (choose your preferred beverage brand). It is an easy way for companies to promote SDGs/CSR initiatives, and a great opportunity for schools to foster real-world SDGs education and inquiry-based learning. Please consider introducing one!

2. Support Through Food, Experiences, and Learning
⑥ Food Experiences via byFood.com
Simply booking a restaurant or gourmet experience through “byFood.com” donates 10 school meals. Enjoying a delicious meal directly translates into providing meals for 10 children—a high-impact way to support!

⑦ Online English & Culture Lessons
Learn English and Malawian culture directly online from Malawian instructors. Taking these lessons creates local employment while expanding educational opportunities, fostering a two-way, sustainable partnership.
