On March 3rd, this festival is full of strong traditional atmosphere, and every household will boil a pot of cauliflower eggs, so as to entrust the good wishes of dispelling diseases and disasters and praying for good health all year round. In the Tieqiao Community of Taishan Street, the volunteers of the Zhongding Pension Mutual Aid Platform Service Point sent this warmth and blessing to the hearts of the elderly in the community.
Volunteers get busy early. They weave through the fields, carefully picking fresh shepherd's cauliflower, ready to cook a pot of hot shepherd's cauliflower eggs for the community's elders. These volunteers usually actively participate in various public welfare activities in the community to provide help to the elderly within their capabilities, and on this special day, they are even more carefully prepared, hoping to convey their care and blessings to the elderly with their actions.
After some busyness, a pot of fragrant cauliflower eggs is finally cooked. Volunteers carefully packed the eggs into boxes and then went door-to-door to deliver this special holiday gift to the elderly empty nesters. At each household, the volunteers would talk to the elderly cordially, ask them about their physical condition and living conditions, and tell them to pay attention to their health and stay healthy. When the old people received this unexpected gift, they all had happy smiles on their faces. They all said that although their children were not around, they did not feel lonely and helpless with the care and help of these volunteers. This warmth and blessing from the community made them feel the joy of the festival and the beauty of life.
In this festival full of traditional customs, the volunteers of the service point of Zhongding Pension Mutual Aid Platform in Tieqiao Community, Taishan Street, interpret the traditional virtues of "the old and the old" with their own actions. Their kindness not only made the old people feel the warmth and blessings of the festival, but also let us see the harmony and beauty of the society. Let's look forward to more volunteers joining this warm family and contributing to the construction of a harmonious society.
