The Spring Festival is approaching, and the elderly in Zhongle Village, Xieqiao Town, Haining City, Zhejiang Province, have received a particularly warm New Year gift.
Zhejiang Zhou Xijian Public Welfare Foundation was officially approved by the Zhejiang Provincial Department of Civil Affairs in December 2015, and was initiated by Zhou Xijian, chairman of the board of directors of Zhongmai Health Industry Group, with a personal investment of 3 million yuan. The "Le Laos Project" signed on the same day is the foundation's first public welfare project, which is a long-term public welfare project for the elderly and helping the elderly. In 2016, the Foundation will first invest 300,000 yuan to cooperate with the People's Government of Xieqiao Town, Haining City, to provide financial support for the poor elderly who suffer from major diseases, major family changes, physical disabilities and mental illnesses; at the same time, it will also provide elderly condolences for the elderly aged 80 and above to enrich their old age.
At the scene of the event, Zhang Weifen, chairman of the Haining Municipal CPPCC Committee, believed in his speech that filial piety culture is a traditional Chinese culture and a traditional Chinese virtue, and traditional culture should also be carried forward in the progress of the times, and the development of public welfare projects centered on "filial piety" will help improve the living standards of the elderly in the region and promote the construction of filial piety culture in the region, which is an effective way to enhance social harmony.
Wang Jian, supervisor of Zhejiang Zhou Xijian Public Welfare Foundation, said that the foundation will continue to follow the filial piety culture that Mr. Zhou Xijian has been advocating, and through professional and transparent management, the le lao plan will continue to be promoted for a long time, so as to better benefit the local elderly in urgent need and let them enjoy their old age in peace.
