A few days ago, the Tongjing Community in Changshengqiao Town was very lively, and the "Changsheng Yifei iFLYTEK" micro-public welfare venture capital roadshow was being held here.
This activity was jointly guided by the District Civil Affairs Bureau, the District Charity Association, the Party Committee and Government of Changshengqiao Town, and the Presidium of the People's Congress of Changshengqiao Town, supported by iFLYTEK Co., Ltd. and iFLYTEK Southwest Co., Ltd., hosted by Changshengqiao Town Social Work Station, undertaken by Xingyuan Social Worker, and co-organized by Tongjing Community and Minyue Social Worker.
At the event, 11 venture philanthropy project teams from various communities appeared one after another, and they showed their "housekeeping skills" to the judges and the audience through sitcoms, speeches, videos and other ways.
It is reported that the public welfare venture capital began to collect in January this year, and a total of 26 micro-public welfare projects were collected through demand research and community interviews in the early stage, and 11 projects were invited to participate in the roadshow after preliminary screening, covering many fields such as helping the elderly, education, health, and culture.
This activity takes "one old and one young" as the main service object, including helping the elderly to repair, caring scissors, knocking on the door of the elderly living alone, "one old and one young" sharing birthday party, a bowl of longevity noodles and other services. In addition, the site also brought together special projects in other fields, such as the "Scholarly Mother" national reading public welfare project led by the Xiangxi Community Social Work Office, the "Dream Travel" youth vocational experience project initiated by the Tongjing Community Social Work Office, and the "Little Garden at the Doorstep" community environmental micro-governance project hosted by the Taohuaqiao Community Social Work Office.
The event not only provides a platform for social work organizations to display and communicate, but also promotes the development of public welfare undertakings in the jurisdiction, so that more people can understand and participate in public welfare activities. The event is composed of a jury of 30 people, including social workers, people's congress representatives and mass representatives, aiming to excavate and launch a number of venture capital projects that highlight professional characteristics, based on the needs of the masses and reflect the service temperature through the roadshow selection, and effectively mobilize various social work organizations, social units, people's congress representatives, and resident volunteers to participate in public welfare and charity, and explore "social work + public welfare" Integrate into community governance, give better play to the active role of the five social associations in participating in community governance and innovative services, and help build a new pattern of community governance of co-construction, co-governance and sharing.
Yang Kang, a representative of the People's Congress of Changshengqiao District, actively played a representative role and promoted his unit, iFLYTEK Southwest Co., Ltd., and Changshengqiao Town Social Worker Station to donate 10,000 yuan each into the "Eighteen Fragrances" Poverty Relief Public Welfare Fund in Changshengqiao Town, helping the outstanding projects selected this time to achieve results.
In the end, 9 projects received funding ranging from 1,200 to 3,000 yuan, and the Changshengqiao Town Social Work Station will strengthen supervision and guidance to ensure that venture capital projects play a better role and help community governance.
According to the person in charge of the social work station of Changshengqiao Town, Changshengqiao Town combines public welfare services that everyone can participate in and benefit from the work of "five social associations", and solves the needs of residents, cultivates social work talents, spreads the concept of public welfare, and helps co-governance and sharing through the form of social work and public welfare projects. In the future, we will guide and strive for more social units, social work organizations, people's congress deputies, and residents to participate in it, promote the implementation of a number of projects, benefit the people, and explore the integration of "social work + public welfare" to promote community governance and achieve tangible results.
