On September 16, 2024, the elderly canteen in Xiating Village, Gande Town, Anxi County was very lively, and a Mid-Autumn Festival caring for the elderly activity with the theme of "Mid-Autumn Festival with Full Moon, Warm Xiating" was warmly staged here.
At the event site, the faces of the old people were filled with happy smiles, and their happy expressions were like the brightest sunshine in autumn. When they saw the rich and diverse gifts, their eyes flashed with surprise. The lively cake session pushed the atmosphere to a climax, and the old people listened attentively to the sound of the dice beating in the bowl, and every time the results were announced, they were accompanied by bursts of laughter.
Lunch is also extraordinarily rich, with delicious mutton, duck soup with lamb chops, pork knuckle eggs, prawns, salty rice, etc., as well as fresh fruits and sweet mooncakes, which make the old people feast. Watching the old people taste the food contentedly, the intoxicated expression makes people feel warm.
The police officers from the Gande Police Station also came to the scene to explain in detail the common means and prevention methods of mobile phone fraud for the elderly, improve the anti-fraud awareness of the elderly, and protect their property safety. The old people listened attentively and nodded their heads in agreement from time to time.
The event received strong support from people from all walks of life, not only rich cash and gift donations, but also caring people like Wang Donglin. Last year, Wang Donglin sponsored 2,000 on the spot, and this year he sponsored 1,000 again, and his kindness added more warmth and strength to the event.
In this festival of reunion, the activity of "Full Moon Mid-Autumn Festival, Warm Xiating" brought material care and spiritual comfort to the elderly. I believe that with the joint efforts of all sectors of society, the lives of the elderly will be happier and healthier, and the future of Xiating Village will be even better.
