Starting in July, due to summer camps occupying indoor venues, Jiahemay Senior Association relocated its dance, Tai Chi, and fashion teams to the outdoor plaza under the City Hall clock tower. Meanwhile, the choir and karaoke and band continued rehearsing indoors. We held five regular activities each week, with steadily growing participation:
＊Tai Chi Team: ~60 participants
＊Choir: 30+ participants
＊Band: 20+ participants
＊Dance Team: Nearly 20 participants
＊Karaoke: Over 10 participants
We actively participated in various cultural and civic events, including:
✅ Cultural performance at the Pakistan Association
✅ Performance at a city councillor’s community exchange event
✅ Participation in the local Multicultural Festival
✅ Attendance at the City’s Bicycle Use and Safety seminar
✅ Scheduled senior home performance in August
✅ Performances at the Food Festival and Nanjing Chamber of Commerce celebration
✅ Invitation to the Police-Community Friendship Day in September
This month, we were thrilled to receive city funding for our new project:
“Jiahemay Golden Melody series “
Through nostalgic melodies and rhythmic movement, the project aims to help seniors:
＊Prevent cognitive decline
＊Enhance balance and coordination
＊Relieve loneliness and boost emotional well-being
＊Increase social interaction
＊Improve quality of life
With the preparation phase complete, the project is set to launch, aligning closely with government priorities on active aging, mental health, and community support.
🤝 We warmly invite young volunteers who are passionate about community service to join Jiahemay, bringing care and connection to our seniors while building a more harmonious society.
📹 Event videos and photos will be shared soon—stay tuned to witness the vitality and joy of our senior members!
