Selling a book Panda Qingqing from July 2nd to August 19th means that Chongqing IFS donates 20% of the price-418 yuan to the giant panda conservation program. Sales of the limited edition of merchandise launched on Tuesdays from July 23 to August 13th will be fully invested in the program.
The state-owned forestry center in Dujiangyan is one of the habitats of wild giant pandas, and the center is outside of the nature reserve for giant pandas.

Chongqing IFS shoulders its social responsibility and also raises funds through the themed event.
