WE Volunteer | Care for the Elderly Month

Release time:2023-10-03 Content sourced from: Page View:

The seventh themed month of WE Volunteer——September’s “Care for the Elderly Month” comes to a close! What is reflected behind the transition from a sense of security to a sense of learning, enjoyment and worthiness in old age is precisely the new trend and change of the elderly from paying more attention to their physical needs to focusing on their emotional needs. Over the past month, we actively expanded ecological resources to organize various forms of philanthropic activities, aiming to encourage the public to pay attention to the physical and emotional needs of the elderly and deliver love and warmth to them.

 

Let's take a look at the exciting events that took place in September.

 

Rice-Giving Program

 

With the Mid-Autumn Festival just around the corner, the Hong Kong Regional Operation Committee and Fosun Foundation initiated the “Festival Community Care, Rice-Giving CSR Program”. ONE Fosun Hong Kong has formed a voluntary team to visit the Sham Shui Po Community Association in Tai Hang Tung Estate, Shek Kip Mei, Kowloon, Hong Kong. In addition to distributing rice packs to the elderly and low-income families to relieve their financial burden, the ONE Fosun team also helped the Association to prepare and pack the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts, sent holiday blessings and conveyed care to the elderly and low-income people during this Mid-Autumn Festival time, spreading Fosun’s positive energy of “Creating Happier Lives for Families Worldwide” to Hong Kong.  

Together We Bring Joy to the Elderly

 

In order to convey care and warmth to the seniors, Fosun Foundation, in collaboration with F-LIN, organized two activities in communities of Quyang Road and North Bund respectively. These activities provided various health services such as blood pressure and blood glucose monitoring for the elderly. We also launched some fun activities like DIY handicrafts and lantern riddles guessing.
