Chen Qingdi, a retired party member volunteer in Tianping Street, Xuhui District, has played an important role in community development and residents' well-being over the years. Although she is retired, her passion for serving the community remains undiminished.
Ping An volunteered to weave a "protective net" for community safety
Since her retirement in 2015, Chen Qingdi has been serving as a safety volunteer and fire safety propagandist in the jurisdiction, inspecting the community and investigating potential safety hazards. I remember one time, there were residents in the community who went out and did not turn off the fire, and Chen Qingdi, who lived on the top floor, was keenly aware of the abnormal smell and ran downstairs to deal with it in time to eliminate the fire hazard. "Safety is especially important in an old-fashioned house like ours, and if it catches fire, the consequences can be devastating," she said. At major nodes such as New Year's Day, Spring Festival, National Day, and the International Import Expo every year, she actively participates in stability maintenance patrols and on-duty inspections to ensure the safety of the community.

Chen Qingdi is also a good hand at cultural and sports activities. In 2007, Chen Qingdi came to work in the neighborhood committee, responsible for culture, education, health and other lines, and over time, she became more and more familiar with the residents, and also kept in touch with the community cultural activity center. Chen Qingdi said: "To do cultural and educational work, I have to organize singing and dancing teams, and then I was admitted as an instructor and joined the team to promote national fitness." More than ten years have passed, Chen Qingdi is now a national instructor of Tianping Street, and also serves as the captain of the Tianping Street Line Dance Team, making her own contributions to popularizing scientific fitness knowledge, distributing public welfare sports services, conveying the concept of healthy life, and promoting public sports.
The Tianping Street Sunset Dance Team is a beautiful scenery active in the Tianping community. The team represented the street to participate in district and municipal competitions, won many good results, and was also rated as a "four-star fitness team in Xuhui District" in 2023. This well-known team in Tianping Street was formed by Chen Qingdi. "Originally, my legs were like two pieces of wood, and I couldn't dance at all. Chen Qingdi said with a smile. However, she believes that as a cultural and educational cadre of the neighborhood committee, it is her responsibility to form a cultural and sports team. "If I don't take the lead myself, how can I bring others involved?So, she studied dance at her own expense, and after completing her studies, she gathered sisters of the same age who were interested in dance in the community to form the Sunset Line Dance Team. After retiring from the neighborhood committee in 2015, she was transferred to work at the neighborhood community cultural activity center and served as the head of the Tianping Street Sports Guidance Station, and at the same time, she began to guide the Tianping Street Light Dance Feiyang Line Dance Team. Under her leadership, the Light Dance Feiyang Line Dance Team was rated as "Xuhui District Five-Star Fitness Team". During the rehearsal dance of the Light Dance Flying Dance Team, she continued to exert the spirit of excellence. During the rehearsal of the team's work - the group dance "Shanghai Ballad", Chen Qingdi and the team members actively communicated and communicated with the choreographer, adding and polishing the fragments of the "café", and the long-term cooperative choreographer was impressed by everyone's seriousness. In the end, this dance won the "Outstanding New Work" award in the 2020-2021 Xuhui District Qunwen Creation Program Exhibition (Dance) Special Session.
