"Uncle, let's click on this icon, keep holding it when we speak, and then let go after speaking, and your voice can be successfully sent to the other party through WeChat chat. In Dong'an Community, Xinglong Street, Kenli District, a unique class is underway, the students sitting in the classroom are not ignorant children, but a silver-haired elderly.
"Since the community opened the 'e-Zhi Commune', our life has become much more convenient, and many things that we couldn't operate before can be taken to the classroom and asked Xiao Zhang, and we all understand. 77-year-old Liu Jinhua has recently been learning WeChat skills, and the dazzling buttons have always kept him scratching the door, and now, he has learned how to add WeChat friends, chat, send voice and other basic skills, all thanks to what he calls "Xiao Zhang", Zhang Meijie, a registered volunteer in the Dong'an community.
Zhang Meijie was originally an ordinary worker in the community, and after the community paid attention to the needs of the elderly to learn electronic devices and wanted to open relevant courses, she volunteered to sign up as a volunteer, and used her spare time to take screenshots of the basic operation of the mobile phone one by one, make a PPT, print it into a booklet, and show it to the students in the classroom. Nowadays, more and more enthusiastic people like Zhang Meijie have taken the initiative to join the community volunteer team, covering various aspects such as public welfare courses, helping the elderly and the weak, cultivating civilization, and performing arts, so as to jointly contribute to the development of the community. Wang Shanshan, secretary of the Party branch of Dong'an Community, Xinglong Street, introduced that the community continues to attract residents in the jurisdiction to join the volunteer team, vigorously promote the spirit of volunteerism, cultivate a culture of volunteer service, and carry out extensive volunteer service activities.
Dong'an community has a large jurisdiction and many elderly people, focusing on caring for the empty nest elderly and implementing "family companionship" for the purpose, creating a "family tree" volunteer service brand, and adopting methods such as analyzing registered information and conducting door-to-door surveys to sort out the number of special families such as empty nest elderly people in need of help in the responsible area, and classify and manage them according to the degree of difficulty. Since Deng Fang, a community volunteer, and Li Suying, an empty nester, have been married to each other, they have insisted on calling every day to greet them, chatting with the elderly whenever they are free, doing laundry, cooking, and grocery shopping for the elderly, so that the elderly can always experience the warmth of "relatives" company. Since the establishment of the "Family Tree" volunteer service brand, 119 volunteers in the community have formed a "one-to-one" family pair with retired employees, volunteer activities can be seen everywhere, and community residents actively participate, effectively making Dong'an community a "warm community" with harmonious neighborhoods, and volunteer service has also become a "new trend" in everyone's life.
In addition to tapping enthusiastic residents in the community to volunteer, Xinglong Street also pays attention to the integration of resources, unites schools, health service centers, social organizations, and businesses in the community to regularly carry out "public welfare markets", set up volunteer service booths, and cooperate through free clinics, voluntary haircuts, public welfare maintenance and other ways to serve residents in the jurisdiction. In recent years, Xinglong Street, Kenli District, through volunteer service, has accurately connected the needs of the masses, connected the volunteers' specialties with the needs of residents, and formed an interlocking benign volunteer activity mode, so that the volunteer service work can truly be accurately "pointed" and done to the "hearts" of the masses, so that the volunteer spirit will shine with new brilliance in serving the masses and let the flower of civilization bloom brightly.
