ELDER CARE

Volunteers from China Eastern Airlines Jiangsu visited an elder care service center in Nanjing, capital of Jiangsu province, on the traditional Chongyang Festival, also known as the Double Ninth Festival, which fell on Oct 11 this year. During the event, the volunteers not only brought daily necessities, cakes and other gifts to the elderly residents but also engaged in close interactions with them, inviting them to take part in fun games and quizzes, guiding them on safe smartphone usage and alerting them to online scams. It is the 15th year that young volunteers from the company have visited the center to extend their holiday blessings and wishes to the elderly residents.
