Submitted by webmaster on Fri, 03/06/2026 - 17:35
Last autumn and winter, volunteers from Virtuos Shanghai and Chengdu Studios entered local schools to provide engaging IT lessons and creative hands-on workshops for children. Where technology met creativity, knowledge was shared alongside warmth. Let’s revisit these inspiring moments together.
Retaining Autumn Memories – Virtuos Shanghai Volunteering
On the afternoon of November 21, 19 volunteers from Virtuos Shanghai visited their partner migrant school in Minhang District and conducted diversified volunteering activities for over 70 students. In 2020, Virtuos Shanghai collaborated with Netspring Green IT Classroom Program to establish a dedicated IT classroom at the school, equipped with more than 40 refurbished computers. After relocating in 2025, the classroom continues to support the school's digital education initiatives.
The children eagerly awaited the volunteers' arrival and lined up early to enter the classroom. Beginning with a volunteer's self-introduction and an engaging overview of Virtuos and the game industry, the session transitioned smoothly into an interactive discussion on natural resource conservation. The children were encouraged to share their daily eco-friendly actions. Afterwards, guided by the volunteers, they started working on computers to create environmental-themed digital posters and enthusiastically presented their finished work. At the same time, a creative autumn craft session titled "Collecting Autumn, Remembering Autumn" was underway in the science classroom. There, volunteers used poetic language to evoke the spirit of the season, inspiring the children to use fallen leaves as their material and their imagination as their brush to compose unique collages of autumn's beauty.
Digital Brushes, Green Hearts – Virtuos Chengdu Volunteering
On the afternoon of December 18, six volunteers from Virtuos Chengdu Studio visited the partner school in Shuangliu District and carried out a series of engaging volunteering activities with nearly 30 students. In April 2023, coordinated by Netspring Green IT Classroom Program and fully supported by Virtuos Chengdu Studio, the school successfully established a Green IT Classroom, which has since provided consistent support for the school IT classes.
In the IT workshop, students learned to design digital posters in PowerPoint, creatively combining text, images, and other elements. With patient guidance from the volunteers, the children turned their imaginative ideas into reality, each creating a unique poster of their own. This year's handicraft workshop introduced functional recycled art—transforming used plastic bottles and similar materials into planters for succulents. Moving beyond previous two-dimensional art activities, we ventured into three-dimensional creation this time, focusing on accessible materials, delivering a strong environmental message, and emphasizing the satisfaction of hands-on making. Guided by the Netspring team and Virtuos volunteers, the students "took green home," turning waste into lasting natural decor—where sustainability meets creativity, and life continues to grow.
Tech4Good and Growth Together
Each Green IT Classroom represents not just equipment, but a commitment to ongoing companionship; every volunteering activity is not merely a transfer of knowledge, but a meeting of mutual warmth. We thank every volunteer for their dedication, and every child for the curiosity and creativity shining in their eyes. With tech4good and companionship for growth, we look forward to our next warm encounter.
