from 8 to 10 august 2014, everbright’s volunteer team and their children visited the cataract patients and medical practitioners of “lifeline express” eye-train hospital in tai’an city, shandong. they had also a gathering with the students in the rural region.
it is everbright’s first parent-child volunteer service for both hong kong and mainland staff. during the 3-day trip, volunteers have deepened their understanding on the services provided by lifeline express which everbright is one of the main sponsors. also, parents and kids can have a real life experience for poverty through the visits to the needy families in mainland china, which inspires the kids to cherish their health and happiness, so as to nurture their kindness to people. it was full of fun and laughter during the trip, both the volunteers and their children enjoyed themselves very much.
as a long term and an important supporting organisation to lifeline express, china everbright charitable foundation has actively supported the charitable development of “lifeline express” throughout all these years.
