The Macau Community Voluntary Service Association held an event yesterday in the sitting-out area of Lok Yeong Garden estate in Fai Chi Kei district with the aim of promoting “love and care” through a string of performances and game booths.
The event began with a dancing performance by young children and volunteers from the organisation. The organisation, according to the statement, was keen to promote their slogan, “Care for others every day, care for others all the way” during the one-day event.
Long Yi Man, the association’s vice-president, mentioned in her speech that May 20 is the day of love – due to the fact that in Chinese “5 20” sounds like “I love you”. “Hopefully,” she said, “through this event, the organisation can reignite love within the community.” She also encouraged the attendees to show love and care to everyone around them.
