Respecting the elderly is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation, and loving the elderly and helping the elderly is the common responsibility of society. The Spring Festival is approaching, the years are cold and warm, and the Tong'an District Jingshan Volunteer Association, under the guidance of the Civilization Office of the Tong'an District Committee, carries out the year-end condolences of "Hundred Filial Piety Dreams" and "Warm New Year". Volunteers with concern for the elderly and the elderly in special hardship households walked into Xiangping Street, Lianhua Town, Xinmin Town and other town streets, talked with the elderly, cared about their physical health, and sent New Year blessings such as daily necessities and love red envelopes.
Grandma Gao of Gukeng Village, Tingxi Town, is 92 years old and spends her days with her 63-year-old son. Grandma Gao's son suffers from asthma and is bedridden for a long time, and needs oxygen to relieve the pain, and the family lives relatively poorly. A few days ago, Dai Jincai, president of the Jingshan Volunteer Association of Tong'an District, and Tong'an volunteers came to Grandma Gao's house to clean up and sent condolences such as oil rice fruits and 300 yuan in cash red envelopes. Grandma Gao and the volunteers talked passionately and formed a deep friendship. Before leaving, Grandma Gao held the hands of the volunteers tightly and thanked them.
Establish a paired help and care model, implement a "one-to-one" or volunteer help service composite model, regular visits and visits, provide relay family services, help the lonely and widowed elderly to solve practical life difficulties, etc., and send warmth to the special elderly groups in rural areas. Dai Jincai said that caring for the elderly has formed a complete set of mechanisms in the Jingshan Volunteer Association. The association has set up grid members in eight town streets in Tong'an District, and the grid members must conduct a thorough investigation of the elderly in the jurisdiction once a month to keep abreast of the latest situation of the elderly. Every three months, the association organizes volunteers to go to the homes of the elderly to comfort them and send them warmth and care. The launch of the "Hundred Filial Piety Dream" activity to respect the elderly and help the elderly is to let the elderly have support, dependence, happiness and safety for the elderly, create a good atmosphere of respect for the elderly, care for the elderly, and support for the elderly in the society, and practice the spirit of "Love Xiamen".
