On October 26, the children of Mile Primary School in Niujie Town received a gift from the "Shanghai Abba" in Shanghai's Xuhui District, and the "Shanghai Abba" that the children shouted and read in their hearts was Zhang Zhiyong, who won the "Most Beautiful Retired Soldier" in 2021.
Zhang Zhiyong came to Maitreya Primary School in Niujie Town with love, although it was late autumn and the weather was very cold, but the court of Mile Primary School was full of laughter. Zhang Zhiyong donated clothes, pants, shoes and school bags to all 140 students of Maitreya Primary School in Niujie Town.
"Our school is more than 80 kilometers away from the county seat, and the children rarely have the opportunity to go to the city. The children were very happy to receive the donated supplies, and the faces of each student were full of smiles. Shi Yong, principal of Mile Primary School in Niujie Town, said.
"I came this time as a retired soldier in Xuhui District, volunteers and caring people from all walks of life to donate materials, and I want to start our revitalization of rural work from a doll, let the children have a new environment and new awareness, learn Lei Feng from an early age, learn from the heroes of the motherland, let them know that the development of the motherland cannot be separated from them, and they must become the pillars of the country." Zhang Zhiyong, chairman of Xuhui Zhang Zhiyong Public Welfare Service Society, said.
Zhang Zhiyong also ate a nutritious lunch with the children and talked with each other. Zhang Zhiyong also visited students whose families were in difficult condition and distributed condolence money to them. Zhang Zhiyong said that although the military uniform is taken off, the soul of the army is still there, and we must use the spirit of Lei Feng to build a bridge of love for Shanghai and Yunnan.
"We in Xuhui District and Shiping County are twinning cities, and both of us have the obligation to serve frontier students and contribute to rural revitalization." When a soldier defends his home and country and takes off his uniform, he or she must contribute to social service. Zhang Zhiyong said.
