At Vance Kitira International, we draw inspiration from our community and the world around us. Our commitment to social responsibility drives us to give back in meaningful ways. We integrate ethics, community engagement, and sustainable practices into our core values to make a positive impact. By prioritizing social responsibility and sustainability, Vance Kitira strives to create a better world for future generations.
Inspired by his children's educational experiences in the United States, Vance Kitira understood the value of learning through play for preschoolers and prioritized nurturing their creativity. Over the years, sales of Vance Kitira candles have funded donations of money, furniture, art supplies, and more to orphanages in his homeland. With the support of Living Concepts, his family's factory in Thailand, Vance designed a block table perfect for young children. The first table was donated to Tuxedo Park School (NY) in May 2006, followed by gifts to Village School in Waldwick, NJ, and an orphanage in Thailand.
To date, we've installed 29 block toy tables in 19 schools, orphanages, and children's centers across Thailand. With Vance's pledge to donate to 16 more places by November, we are confident in reaching our goal of 40 block table donations by the year's end. This initiative not only brings joy and creativity to these children but also fosters a supportive and enriching environment for their growth and development.
