Charity Journey to Xiangxi: Letting Love and Growth Take Root in the Land — A Chronicle of Hunan Xintan New Material Co., Ltd.'s Caring Support Activity
On July 19, Hunan Xintan New Material Co.,Ltd joined hands with Hunan Lushanfeng Social Work Service Center, embarking on a journey to Tiemazhou Village, Hongshilin Town, Guzhang County, Xiangxi. Accompanied by philanthropists from Shanghai, Jiangxi, and Changsha, they returned for their third consecutive year to visit four children in their paired support program. Beyond delivering donations and essential supplies – including daily necessities and school supplies – they brought 11 children from different cities. This unique "Parent-Child Charity Trip" ignited the intergenerational bonding while nurturing growth through heartfelt interaction.
Light in the Soil: Touching Lives During Home Visits
Led by village officials, the charity team trekked along winding mountain paths to the children's homes. In dimly lit main rooms, peeling walls displayed rows of honor certificates; on modest desks, textbooks and notebooks stood neatly stacked. Volunteers crouched to chat knee-to-knee with the children—discussing studies and future dreams—their warm words dispelling life's shadows. "There's light in these children's eyes," observed one mother in the group. "Their worn-down pencils gleam from constant use, yet with those stubby tools, they've written their way to academic excellence topping the entire township."
Echoes in the Meeting Room: A Dialogue of Responsibility and Hope
Following the home visits, the symposium in the village office became a magnetic field of emotional resonance. Village Party Secretary Dai clasped the volunteers' hands: "Over these three years, the children haven't just gained books and supplies—more importantly, seeds of confidence have taken root in their hearts." Mr. Huang, General Manager of Hunan Xintan New Material Co.,Ltd distilled his reflections into three words: "Cherish, Motivation, and Pass on"—explaining, "Hardship is the whetstone for growth, kindness humanity's compass. May we all become light-bearers."
The children's sharing proved most moving. A young volunteer from Changsha reflected: "We don't choose where we start from, but the sweat we pour into growing determines how far we'll go." Xiaoxue, a supported girl, affirmed through glistening tears: "Birth is fate's starting line, but the direction we run—that's always ours to decide."
Growth in Two Directions: Love as the Truest Education
Devoid of grand ceremonies, this charity journey touched hearts through its purest simplicity. City children learned to identify rice and corn along farm furrows, mastering fire-building before earthen stoves in village kitchens. Adults, meanwhile, rediscovered their own beginnings in children's smiles and renewed strength in shared stories. As one volunteer penned in their journal: "We came thinking to give—but those children taught us what it truly means to grow sunward with resilience."
When the train departed Xiangxi,the emerald mountains blurred beyond the window,yet profound realizations took root in every heart:True compassion was never a one-way flow of giving and receiving—but rather a reciprocal journey of responsibility and growth.
In this land, nature gained warmth,culture pulsed with living veins,and the bond between parents and children deepened into shared transformation.
This encounter across mountains and rivers shall become celestial beacons in the children's memories, illuminating paths yet untraveled.
