the disabled friends seriously made The handicraft
six Li Shan Street office created a working station for the disabled in December 2007. Dozens of disabled persons on the workstation rely on processing and selling crafts to maintain their livelihoods.
according to the relevant person in charge of the office, the workstation is named "one ping philanthropic workstation" with the name of Zhang Yiping, a disabled youth. Zhang Yiping, at the age of 4, suffered from cerebral palsy and became a disabled person who could not take care of himself. She was strong and optimistic on the ground. She had mastered the production of beads by his insistence on exercise and the help of the community volunteers. In order to repay society, Zhang Yiping has taught the disabled in the area to weave beads.
processing a handicraft can only earn 1 to 3 yuan in processing fees. "Making money is not the first goal." Zhang Yiping said that because of cerebral palsy, the 27 year old female sun sun had developed an autistic and eccentric personality from childhood. After joining the workstation, she processed her handicrafts with her disabled friends. She gradually went out of the psychological shadow and became fond of love and laughter.
"a lot of disabled people can't treat their own defects correctly and tend to fall into the misconception of pessimistic and autistic". The director of the office, Lin Siu Li, introduces the purpose of leading the disabled, in addition to making them self reliant, the most important thing is to help people to build up their confidence in life and integrate into the society. Since the establishment of
workstation, more than 30 disabled people have participated at most, and many disabled people can earn their own living expenses. The workstation has contributed many times to the children of disabled children under the age of 14 or family members with disabilities, and has organized 4 beading training activities abroad.
"but the sales situation is getting worse," Zhang Yiping said. The handicrafts they made were sold mainly by the workstation's disabled people, with no fixed customers and sales channels. Because time is not fixed and mobility is large, there are only 2 severe cerebral palsy patients still selling in front of the landscape. "
" now has already accumulated over 400 pieces of Arts and crafts worth more than 5000 yuan, so that the workstation will be disbanded, because there is no operating funds. " Zhang Yiping said, "I hope that the caring people in the community can focus on the business of disabled people and care about helping workstations continue to develop".
at present, the office is actively looking for sales outlets and customers for "Ping Ping philanthropic workstation". The head of the office said that on the coming of the national disability day, the office will hold a sale in front of the seven Li Mountain store in Ginza in May 15th, and welcomes the participation of caring people; if a citizen is in possession of the sales information, it is hoped to be able to contact them.
