September 5th this year marks China's ninth China Charity Day, and every September is also Guangzhou's "Yangcheng Charity Month." On August 31st, the ninth China Charity Day in Guangdong and the Guangzhou "Yangcheng Charity Month" themed activities officially began.
As in previous years, the popular Beijing Road Charity Carnival is back. Citizens can enjoy shopping along Beijing Road Pedestrian Street and Xihu Road Square while participating in charity activities, creating a heartwarming "City Walk" filled with love.
The Beijing Road Charity Carnival is one of the highlights of the annual Charity Month activities. Launched for the first time in 2016, it has been successfully held six times and has become an important platform for promoting widespread public participation in charity.
This year's Carnival features several special areas, including charity performances, interactive experiences, achievement displays, and a charity market. As visitors stroll through the historic pedestrian street, they can enjoy shopping while also experiencing the warmth and impact of charity.
Ms. Zhangpraises this innovative model of "shopping and having fun while doing charity." She believes that spreading charity in high-traffic areas allows people to learn about it comprehensively. She likens this outreach to sowing seeds of goodwill, which will eventually yield more fruits of love, and she finds it very positive.
Feng Xian, Deputy Director of the Guangzhou Charity Service Center, stated that over 100 charity events are set to launch, aiming to engage the public in hands-on participation. During Charity Month,Guangzhou will feature a variety of events. Additionally, community-themed cultural activities by local volunteers and charity sales to support people with disabilities will continue, bringing warmth and light to the city.
Guangzhou's charitable sector is thriving, with numerous organizations flourishing throughout the city. Currently, Guangzhou has 245 charity organizations, 1,106 charity spaces, 176 community charity (volunteer service) stations, and 2,995 community charity funds. The total funds raised amount to 138 million yuan, achieving 100% coverage of villages and communities.
