At the beginning of the event, volunteers paired up with families in need. They have an in-depth understanding of the living conditions and health knowledge needs of the paired families, and develop a personalized support plan. During the pairing process, the volunteers patiently listened to the voices of family members, paid attention to their emotional changes and mood swings, actively provided health management information and psychological counseling, and used their sincerity and care to make the needy groups feel the warmth and care of the society, and help them establish a positive attitude towards life.

In addition, the volunteers also introduced the "March 3rd" Baanti culture in Xinshuikeng Village to introduce the folk customs, meanings, legends, festivals, etc. of the "Pak Tai Festival" to the disadvantaged groups, so that the members of the disadvantaged groups present listened to it with relish, evoked their affectionate memories of the past years, felt the beauty of life and the power of culture together, and made them cherish the happy time in front of them even more. Among them, Granny Chen said: Every time the festival of "March 3rd", relatives and friends from far away will come back to worship and participate in the blessing ceremony, and then everyone will get together to happily review the happy experience of previous years. Now that I am old and people are unable to go home for various reasons, I will continue to participate in the blessing ceremony and pray for everyone's peace and prosperity............
Volunteers build good relationships with people in need
A culture, a sustenance, these cultural elements not only let the needy groups feel the breadth and profundity of traditional culture, but also let them find the source of spiritual solace and strength. This assistance activity not only brings more care and support to the needy groups, but also injects new vitality into the development of traditional culture and promotes the positive energy of the society.
