#Media People Weekly #Handan, Hebei: Everyone donated money to the dumpling banquet, and the elderly warmed their hearts and warmed themselves

On this year's 99 Chongyang Festival, Nanqiao Village, Guangfu Town, Yongnian District, Handan City, Hebei Province, spontaneously held the sixth dumpling feast, and nearly 400 elderly people happily ate a reunion dinner. On November 9, more than 170 elderly people over the age of 70 who ate the dumpling feast received a new cotton jacket, which warmed the hearts and bodies of the elderly!

Previously, Nanqiao Village has held five dumpling banquets in succession, which has aroused strong resonance in the hearts of villagers. On the eve of this year's Chongyang Festival, Qin Xianzhong, chairman of a housing development company in Handan City, whose ancestral home is Nanqiao Village, called and said, "I want to donate half a fan (head) of pork to the Dumpling Feast of the Chongyang Festival." That night, Zhang Wenzhong, a successful person who went out of Nanqiao Village and a professor at a college in Beijing, learned that Nanqiao Village was organizing a dumpling feast for the elderly, and immediately transferred 500 yuan in cash, and said: "I grew up eating the grain grown up by the elderly over 60 years old in Nanqiao Village, and now it is time to repay the old people." "As soon as the news of continuing to hold a dumpling banquet came out, Han Wenguang, who was working outside nanqiao Village, donated 200 yuan, and Pan Yongqiang transferred 500 yuan... Subsequently, more than 50 caring people and volunteers donated more than 6,000 yuan to the Nanqiao Village Dumpling Banquet Organizing Committee through WeChat; with on-site donations, the dumpling banquet received 10,500 yuan in cash.

The dumpling feast was over, and the organizing committee was worried with the remaining love donations. After consultation, it was decided to use the balance to customize a cotton jacket for the elderly over 70 years old to spend the winter, and then send a special warmth to the elderly.

Then, the members of the organizing committee Du Aiying, Zhang Nuoshan, Zhang Pingshan, Wei Fan and Pan Xiude immediately took action, went door to door to measure the height and weight of the elderly over 70 years old in the village, and customized more than 170 pieces of cotton jackets according to the posture of each elderly person.

On November 9, the new cotton jacket entered the village. In just one morning, more than 170 love cotton jackets were delivered to the hands of the elderly.
