Speaking of the changes in the community environment in recent years, the residents of the Zhenguangyi residential area in Putuo District can be said to have a lot of feelings. As a commercial housing community with some years, the appearance of the community has been renewed in recent years. And these changes are inseparable from a special team of Chuangcheng volunteers in the community, who spontaneously organize together and actively contribute to the work of Chuangcheng in Putuo.
Volunteers who are eradicating small ads
The average age of more than 60 years old is the most obvious feature of this team, but they exude youthful vitality. Publicize the information of creating a city, remove debris from the community, clean the corridors, clean up small posts... These are part of the work of the volunteers of Chuangcheng, but it is extremely difficult to insist on doing these things well for a long time. "Although these things are more trivial, we are still quite happy to do it, just come out to exercise." Aunt Li and Aunt Fang, who used to be out of the house, now have to "punch in" the volunteer activities of the community every Thursday. They told reporters that in order to beautify the community, they sacrificed their rest time, no matter whether it was windy or rainy, they would insist on finding and trying their best to cure the "small problems" of the community. "The community has become better and better under our efforts again and again, and we have a great sense of pride and achievement."
In the community, alongside them is Aunt Ding, an 82-year-old veteran party member, who is the oldest of the volunteers, but you can often see her busy in the community: "Chuangcheng is to let everyone have a good living environment, everyone benefits, everyone must participate!" Although I am older, I still want to do more than I can. Aunt Ding said with a smile.
Volunteers picking up trash
The volunteers not only contributed, but also came up with a lot of "golden ideas". Aunt Kuang Nan, who has lived for more than 20 years, summed up a set of her own "four looks" method of creating a city, looking upwards, downwards, inwards and outwards. Corresponding to the canopy and branches, sewers, the interior environment of the building and the general environment of the community. "These places are the corners that I usually pay attention to, these places are clean, and the overall environment is good." In addition, the most difficult thing in the community is to deal with the stubborn disease of the old community - the pile of stairways. In the previous settlement process, various contradictions such as residents not understanding and special reasons for piles of goods were often encountered. Volunteer Master Wu also found a set of his own methods, "To do this work, you can't just think about cleaning up debris, but you have to combine plugging." In order to make the pile of goods in the corridor have a place to go, Master Wu has communicated with the residents many times, helping to move the debris of the corridor back to the house, and the piles that the residents do not need will also help clean up. In addition, he also helped to move non-motorized vehicles such as bicycles in the corridors to the parking shed of the community. Seeing the efforts of the cadres and volunteers of the neighborhood committee, most of the residents also cooperated in cleaning up the pile. "Residents see that we are so careful to create a clean environment, and everyone will take the initiative to clean it up." In recent years, the corridors in our community can hardly see the piles, and the corridors are much cleaner. ”
"The elderly of the volunteer team are active in the community every day, and the busy figure has infected many community residents. With their help, our community is getting better and better. Xiang Jingwei, general secretary of the party branch of the Zhenguangyi residential area, told reporters that there are more than twenty volunteers like Aunt Li, Aunt Fang and Aunt Ding in the Zhenguangyi residential area. The volunteer team said that the follow-up will be followed by actions to influence and drive more residents to actively participate in the work of creating the city.
