On February 25, volunteer students and teachers from Yichang’s Youth and Children’s Palace visited the Rehabilitation Center for the Disabled to hold a "Mobile Youth and Children’s Palace" activity.

Some teachers and disabled students from the designated rehabilitation institution joined the event, which was attended by nearly 80 people.

Members of the Young Pioneers Volunteer Group visited the rehabilitation center and learned about challenges that autism and hearing and speech impairment groups are facing. Teachers from the Youth and Children’s Palace, which is the official after school center for Chinese students in elementary and junior high school, taught classes such as "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" sign language, dance and art painting.

In a party held after the classes, volunteer group members performed songs, recitations and music, while children at the rehabilitation center also performed some programs to express their love for life and expectations for the future.

During the engagement session, members of the volunteer group presented children with disabilities books, notebooks and other gifts.

"I gave them notebooks as a gift. I hope this will support their studies," said Wang Jiaxiu, a Young Pioneers Volunteer Group member. They all continued playing games and laughing with one another.

The "Mobile Youth and Children’s Palace" activity is a traditional charity program led by Yichang’s Youth and Children’s Palace, which has been carried out for nearly 20 years.

The activity aims to raise public awareness of the needs of children with autism and hearing and speech impairments as well as to guide the youth in Yichang to spread the values of "dedication, friendship, mutual help and progress.” Additionally, it works to build a social atmosphere of understanding, tolerance and respect.
