2 . After his final exam on Jan 11, Wang Yatao immediately moved into the Xiyangfu Nursing Home in Jilin city, Jilin province, becoming a special lodger among the group of seniors.
The 22-year-old sophomore at the Jilin Agricultural Science and Technology University decided to spend two weeks at the nursing home before returning to his hometown in Yingtan city, Jiangxi province.
“I was attracted by a short video posted on (video-sharing platform) Douyin in early January,” he says. “In the video, the owner of the nursing home was recruiting young people as lodgers.”
People who are younger than 35 and have a college education can get a single room, three meals a day and a monthly stipend of 300 yuan ($42) with a requirement to do 20 hours of volunteer service during that period.
Applicants should have a fixed job or study in college, and should not drink or smoke.
“In fact, what attracted me was not the small stipend but rather, the volunteer service,” says Wang. “I thought it would be a good opportunity to have a different kind of volunteer experience.”
Wang has participated in the volunteer team since he enrolled in the university.
“We initiated various volunteer activities across the city, such as visiting nursing homes, tutoring impoverished and ‘left-behind’ children of migrant workers, and teaching the public about environmental protection,” he says. “But I have never lived with so many seniors and delved so deeply into their lives.”
Wang says he and the other volunteers have spent the last few days presenting performances, painting pictures and exercising with the seniors.
“It gives me a warm feeling. They treat us like their grandchildren, and share their fruit and snacks with us. I’ll continue to visit after I return to my university in the spring semester. And I’ll spread the word about this among our volunteer team.”
