IN recent years, a great number of volunteers in Jiading District have implemented a spirit of "devotion, friendship, mutual aid and progress" through their benevolent actions.
'Living maps' at bus station
It is freezing outside at this time of the year, but nothing can stop the traffic volunteers Yao Fengjin and Li Liping from Jiangqiao Town from doing their duties. They always show up at the bus station of Cao'an Road and Jinyuan No. 5 Road in red jackets and volunteer hats, maintaining the order of the station and showing the ways for the passengers. They are called the "living maps" by many regular commuters at the station.
Both Yao and Li have already passed 50. It's not an easy job, although they only serve four hours a day, especially as there is no shelter at the station to hide from the rain and the sun. On the first day of last summer, Li got heatstroke, but she still returned to her position after simple treatment.
Hospital volunteer workers
In Jiading Central Hospital there is also such a team - they wear blue jackets with smiley faces. They help the patients to fill records, guide their ways, help them finish body examinations and take medicine. Although they are at different ages with different jobs, they share one common name - volunteer workers.
In August 2010, the Jiading Central Hospital established the volunteer work station, and for the past one year there were over 600 people joining the team. They serve the patients in their spare time, which is highly praised by the patients and their family members.
Zhu Jie, a student of Shanghai Institute of Health Service majoring clinical medicine, was one of the hospital's first volunteer workers and has served in the hospital for more than 160 hours. He is often seen pushing patients in wheelchairs to receive diagnosis and chatting patiently with the patients when they get annoyed from waiting in the long queues.
One day, Zhu found an old lady was all of a tremble with pale face. He rushed her to a doctor to get help. Since the woman was alone, he also assisted her during the examination, paying the bill and collecting her medicine.
Warm-hearted 'meddlers'
Many people call Lu Yueqin and her husband living in Huating Town "meddlers," but it is not a taunt. Instead it is an honor given to the warm-hearted retired couple. "We just do some little things that we should do," they said.
One day at nightfall, Lu suddenly saw smoke coming from her neighbor's kitchen. She called the firefighters immediately and the fire was put out soon. "A far relative is not as helpful as a near neighbor," her neighbor said with emotion.
