Jiangsu Taixing: Creating "Dream Cabins" for Children in Difficulties

2023-12-29

"Look, Wang Lu (pseudonym) went to the city to participate in a painting competition and even won a prize." At the office of the Taixing Youth League Committee in Jiangsu Province, Liu Qing, the secretary of the Huangqiao Town Youth League Committee, held up her phone and displayed a video sent by Wang's mother - a little girl standing in the center of the venue, holding a certificate and bowing in greeting. "This child has become more confident," Qiu Ruichang, Deputy Secretary of the Taixing Youth League Municipal Committee, breathed a sigh of relief. Wang Lu is a fifth grade student in Yongfeng Community, Huangqiao Town. Last year, her grandfather fell seriously ill, and this year her parents divorced. Wang's mother, who took care of her children alone, also suffered from kidney disease at the beginning of the year. "All the money has been used for medical treatment, and the self built rough room at home has also stopped working. My child and I can only squeeze in the damp rough room," said Wang Mama with a heart wrenching tone. After learning about the situation, Zhang Xinjuan, the director of the Yongfeng Community Neighborhood Committee, took the initiative to come and see if there was anything she could do to help Mrs. Wang. "After a sudden family upheaval, Wang Lu's grades plummeted and her emotions became unstable," Wang's mother choked up. The neighborhood committee reported the situation to Huangqiao Town. After verification by the town, in less than a day, Wang Lu's information was added to the dynamic database of disadvantaged youth in Taixing City. Qiu Rui said that since the launch of theme education, the Taixing Youth League Municipal Committee has learned from a special survey aimed at disadvantaged children that "improving living conditions" is the most urgent wish of children. The database is just the first step, and as one of the first pilot units in Jiangsu Province, Taixing's "Dream House" renovation plan launched for disadvantaged children is the highlight. Allowing children to live in their dream cabin without hurting their self-esteem, the Youth League Municipal Committee chose a secret approach - keeping the list confidential, and the community neighborhood committee arranged a dedicated person to coordinate with the decoration company throughout the entire process until the cabin renovation was completed. Wang Lu's family became the target of the first batch of "Dream Cottage" renovations in Huangqiao Town. Talking about June 15th, Wang Lu is still unforgettable. "Early in the morning, my uncle and aunt came to our house to measure the room, deliver materials, and even asked me to spend a week drawing the shape of my dream house." "The little girl likes to read and practice calligraphy, so we specially made a long desk and a high wardrobe for her." When it comes to every design of the house, Liu Qing can be like a family treasure. ". "During the renovation process, we found that there were no handrails installed on the stairs outside the cabin, and various kitchen circuits were also tangled around at will." Liu Qing realized that the cost of the renovation may exceed the prescribed standards, but it is related to the safety and personal interests of the children, so he must not be careless. The town immediately communicated with the Youth League Municipal Committee, repeatedly connecting with caring organizations and entrepreneurs. "You paid 20000 yuan to install handrails and bathrooms," "I also paid 20000 yuan to renovate the kitchen," and so on, the kind-hearted person filled in the various facilities of the small house, and the whole house was refreshed. "What we are building is a small house, not just a 'small house'," Qiu Rui told reporters. As of now, the Youth League Municipal Committee has assisted a total of 186 disadvantaged youth. Next, the Youth League Municipal Committee will do a solid job in tracking and caring for the latter half of the article, conduct regular visits once a week, and carry out paired care activities three times a month. Long term paired assistance will be carried out from aspects such as family companionship, psychological counseling, academic counseling, and social integration.
