By January 2021, it had over 1,081 active volunteers who contributed their skills and services across various welfare sectors. This association not only has become a highly visible and influential student body within China but also serves as an extension of our institution in reinforcing students' social responsibility awareness, enhancing their practical skills, and nurturing top-tier innovative talent.
