YNU students volunteer to help children

Since a special volunteer activity for kids was conducted during the winter holiday by Yunnan University, or YNU – located in Kunming, capital of Southwest China's Yunnan province – the volunteer work there has been steadily promoted.

In time for the Spring Festival on Jan 21, in order to fully explore the traditional culture and festive meanings, the university held the special event.

Volunteers led children to understand the history and culture of the Spring Festival through teaching and practical experience.
