March 5 this year is the 61st "Lei Feng Memorial Day" and the 25th "Chinese Youth Volunteer Service Day". On the morning of the same day, the 2024 "Shencheng Military and Civilian Learning from Lei Feng and Reverence for Public Welfare Volunteer Service" theme activity and the establishment ceremony of the Pudong New Area "Rong Love Oriental" Reverence Public Welfare Volunteer Service Alliance were held in No. 10 Wangjiangyi "Rongrong" on the east bank of the Binjiang River.
The reporter saw at the scene of the volunteer service activity that the experts of the Pudong Military Xiu Hongren Medical Volunteer Service Team specially invited by the Pudong New Area were carrying out free medical consultations and health consultations, and many citizens came forward to line up to see the free "expert number". First aid demonstrations, water rescue, fire escape and community safety popularization carried out by military and local units such as the Armed Police Boat Brigade, the Water Fire Brigade, and the Shanghai Sports Development Co., Ltd. have also become a hot spot for everyone to watch and consult. The just-established "Rong Ai Dongfang" Reverence Public Welfare Volunteer Service Alliance provides a large number of volunteer service projects such as psychological counseling, legal aid, and legal popularization. Volunteers also interacted with citizens and friends, painted a portrait of Uncle Lei Feng, and sowed the seeds of volunteer service.
It is reported that in order to carry forward the glorious tradition of supporting the army and giving preferential treatment to the family, gather social professional forces, create a new platform for social work, and increase efforts to promote the innovative development of socialized support for the army and preferential families, the Shanghai Association for Supporting the Army and Preferential Families will advocate and take the lead, and reach a consensus with relevant departments of the city and district, enterprises, institutions, and social organizations to jointly initiate the establishment of the "Rong Ai Dongfang" Reverence Public Welfare Volunteer Service Alliance.
At present, the alliance has the first batch of 18 large state-owned enterprises, law firms, schools, hospitals, banks, social organizations and volunteer service teams, such as Shanghai Construction Engineering First Construction Group, Shanghai Oriental Pearl Tower, Shanghai International Convention Center, China Telecom Shanghai Company, etc., aiming to unite all parties in the society to participate in the reverence for public welfare, so that better social resources can provide better services for the loveliest and most respectable people through public welfare volunteer service channels. In this way, the public image and social influence of the alliance members will be enhanced, and the results of co-construction, sharing and win-win will be achieved. At the same time, Pudong New Area has continuously enriched and expanded the connotation of military-civilian co-construction in new forms such as street towns and first-class double support and co-construction, enhanced the sense of honor, happiness and gain of active officers and soldiers and their families, retired soldiers and other preferential care recipients, and effectively condensed the strong "Rong" force of the military and the local government to work together to promote the construction of Pudong leading area and the high-quality development of the new era of military support and preferential service.
At the event, a twinning ceremony was held for 10 towns in Pudong New Area and five ships of the Navy, and military and local leaders awarded the "Pudong Guardian" volunteer service team flags to the representatives of the five ship units.
