Comforting flood victims

Comforting flood victims



On June 21, more than 150,000 people in Fuzhou, Jiangxi, China were displaced when the Fu River burst its banks and flooded the community.

The next day, 30 Amway China volunteers from Jiangxi Province rushed to the scene. They were the first corporate volunteer team to arrive with help and support. They immediately got busy helping settle displaced victims, distributing relief materials, and assisting with clean-up. By July 2, more than 80 volunteers had provided over 4,000 hours of service.

Zhang Huizhong, the 16-year-old daughter of one of the volunteers, found a special way to comfort the flood victims. An accomplished pianist, she gave a wonderful performance for the villagers. The music touched people and helped release their stress, warming their hearts during an unfortunate time.
