Giving Love and Care to “Children from the Stars”

On the morning of August 23rd, with the support of Netspring team, more than 10 volunteers from PVH Dongguan Office came to Dongguan Morning Glory Children's Potential Development, Rehabilitation and Care Center to carry out volunteering activity, interacting with 16 special children such as autism here, and spending a happy and effective companionship time together.

At the beginning of the event, Principal Li from the Morning Glory Children's Potential Development, Rehabilitation and Care Center introduced the original intention and current operation of the school. The school was established in 2015, one of the designated rehabilitation institutions of the Disabled Persons' Federation in Dongguan and has always adhered to the goal of "improving the self-care ability of autistic children, developing their potential, improving their social skills, and ultimately integrating into group learning and life". Then, the volunteer representative of PVH spoke up, expressing their commitment to the public welfare of "PVH Cares" and dedication to positive and meaningful volunteer activities in the community. They also paid sincere respect to the school's philosophy of "enabling children from stars to live independently and with dignity", afterwards, PVH reps presented a batch of educational aids suitable for special needs children's daily use to the school, hoping to help children grow and develop.

Next step, PVH volunteers quickly became familiar with the children through warm up activity of grabbing ocean balls and picture book reading classes, guiding their concentration, reading interest and imagination ability. After that, volunteers and children started a hand painting activity on eco-friendly bags, encouraging the children present to perceive colors and patterns, and freely play their creativity. The children were all very engaged in it with the help of volunteering teachers, and colorful eco-friendly bags were produced out greatly. Interesting games of "fish catching" and “litter porters” were also carried out, where volunteers led children to participate happily, learn to cooperate with each other, and help children improve their physical coordination and motor abilities.
