Ah Jiao and the cleaning apprentices seemed to have no connection, but with the assistance provided by the social worker and clever matchmaking, these apprentices were arranged to help Ah Jiao clean her home, providing her with a conducive environment for recovery.

This arrangement achieved a win-win situation, promoting both public welfare and double the amount of kindness!

As the COVID-19 pandemic has lasted for more than two years, many elders were confined to the indoors for a longer period of time, which led to feelings of boredom, oppression or loneliness, and may have a negative impact on their mental health.
