The activity focused on visiting five disabled and disabled elderly, elderly people with family difficulties, and single-parent orphans in Xingxian Community, Huaicheng Street, Qikeng Village, Qiashui Town, Mai Village, Fenggang Town, and Mazhuyun Village, and volunteers sent them Mid-Autumn Festival mooncakes, milk, rice, pasta, peanut cooking oil and other condolences. The old orphan received the condolences with a happy smile on his face.
During the activity, the volunteers worked together, not afraid of dirty or tired, and took the initiative to carry out voluntary service activities such as haircuts, house cleaning, tidying up messy bed quilts, and removing weeds in the courtyard for the elderly and orphans of each poor household, and communicated cordially with the elderly and orphans, asked them about their physical condition and living conditions, and told them to pay attention to food hygiene, heatstroke prevention and cooling, and reasonably arrange their daily life at the turn of the season. With warm words and sincere smiles, the old people feel the care and warmth of the society. The old people expressed their gratitude for the heart-warming gesture. Luo Huijiao, an old man from Fenggang Mai Village, said: "The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and the main cadres of the volunteer village are very kind to me, bringing me moon cakes, milk, and giving me a haircut, which makes me feel very caring."
During the event, Li Hailing, vice chairman of the Huaiji County Women's Federation, also took her children to participate in visiting poor families, allowing children to communicate face-to-face with orphan students from poor families, transmitting positive energy to poor families, sharing learning experiences and growth stories, and encouraging them to face life positively. Li Hailing said: "Through the children's first-hand experience of the growth environment, learning and living conditions of orphans from poor families, it can stimulate children's compassion, encourage children to cherish the existing living conditions more in their daily life, and cultivate their gratitude." At the same time, children can also draw strength from the resilience and optimism of poor families, learn to care for others, understand others, and form a positive attitude towards life. ”
