"Since I was a teenager, I have been following the example of Lei Feng, a social paragon known for his unselfishness and devotion to the Communist Party of China," said Meng. "After joining the Party, I fortified my faith that to serve the people is my duty, especially those who are in extreme need."
In November 2017, a volunteer team named after Meng Guangbin was set up with a total of 19 detachments, attracting more than 2,000 members in several months.
Meng, who also heads the team, has taught more than 400 of the volunteers how to mend shoes.
“I’ve planned to open free training courses for laid-off workers, helping them gain skills to earn money,” he said. “I will continue doing my business till the day I can’t move.”
