The Youth League Branch of Shandong Yuegong Company organized a “Learn from Lei Feng” activity at a senior citizens’ home.
 
On the afternoon of March 4, the cheerful laughter and warm smiles filling the Yushan Subdistrict Central Senior Care Center in Pingyin County were as comforting as the gentle spring sunshine, warming both hearts and bodies. The Youth League branch of the Shandong Company organized more than a dozen young volunteer members to visit the center, paying their respects and offering care to the elderly residents, bringing the warmth of early spring straight into their hearts.
 
 
As soon as they entered the nursing home, everyone sprang into action. One team took charge of cleaning and tidying up the fitness room, the living room, and other common areas, while another group carefully handed out care packages to each resident, chatting with them about their lives and listening to their stories from years past. Given the residents’ advanced age and hearing loss, everyone paid close attention to detail, speaking slowly and keeping their voices at a level that would ensure the elders could hear them clearly.
 
 
 
 
 
Director Li of the senior care facility briefed us on the residents’ circumstances. Although their material needs are well met, many experience a sense of emotional emptiness, often feeling lonely and insecure. Your visit has brought them much joy and lifted their spirits—thank you so much. Seeing the happy smiles light up their faces, we all felt the warmth of love.
 
 
Happy moments always slip away all too quickly, and the company’s volunteer team bid a reluctant farewell to the elderly. Participants unanimously agreed that this was a highly meaningful activity in the spirit of Lei Feng—bringing joy to the seniors while letting them feel the warmth of society—and pledged to continue upholding the volunteer ethos of “dedication, friendship, mutual assistance, and progress.” This “Spreading Love, Inheriting Civilization, Giving Back to Society” Lei Feng–style outreach to the nursing home was enthusiastically supported by the Shandong Company’s Party branch and administration. It not only underscores the company’s social responsibility but also helps young employees deepen their awareness of respecting the elderly and caring for the young, thereby promoting the traditional Chinese virtues of filial piety and familial love. In doing so, it ensures that the vision of building a “higher‑quality, happier Palace” takes root in everyone’s heart.
