Recently, a “Hike for Love” charity walk initiated by the Chenghai Cuncao Xin Charity Association and the Chenghai Volunteer Charity Association has garnered support from many enthusiastic citizens in Chenghai. By hiking approximately 10 kilometers around the city and conducting a fundraising campaign, they raised 4,837.8 yuan in charitable donations within a single day.
At 10 a.m. that day, over 200 participants in the charity hike set off from Chenghai People’s Square, passing through the Central Market, Hongtouchuan Park, People’s Park, and Chenghai High School along the way — covering a total distance of about 10 kilometers. The group included students, office workers, and citizens who joined spontaneously. University students from the Chenghai Cuncao Xin Charity Association, dressed in yellow vests and carrying donation boxes, led the march. They shouted motivational slogans while introducing the charity event to local shops and passersby.
Along the route, many people generously donated money — drivers rolled down their windows to contribute, elderly people exercising in the park donated tens of yuan from their pockets, and students and securities company employees who had come to join the hike also chipped in. According to reports, the Chenghai Cuncao Xin Charity Association is composed of a group of university students from Shantou’s Chenghai District who attend Sun Yat-sen University. Full of compassion, they recently planned this hiking charity event that combines fitness with fundraising. The proceeds from this event will go to underprivileged children registered with the Chenghai Volunteer Charity Association, supporting their education and daily lives.
