A Visit to Elderly People Brings Them Satisfaction and Happiness

Some students from School of Physics took part in a volunteer service activity organized by the Student Union to assist elderly people in the neighborhood on June 15, which brings them great laughter and joy.

With the increasing awareness of the aging problems, the whole society set out to take better care of and show more respect toward the senior citizens for their life-long dedication and commitment to our society. In response to the call, this weekend a group of volunteers went to the local community to communicate with the old people and help them with some housework. Much delighted with their arrival, the elderly people expressed their sincere thanks for their company and relief. Jannie, one of the volunteers, shared her feeling about this experience. “ What matters most to these old people is company, and listening attentively is just a good idea,” she said.

The president of Student Union said that they would continue to sponsor more meaningful activities like this to serve the society with college students’ passion and talents.
