Kids Guard Shanghai from COVID-19: SIG Celebrates Children's Day

The 72nd International Children Day fell in the special period of epidemic prevention and control. SIG's grass-roots labor unions delivered various activities, bringing together families of its staff to fight the epidemic, and make children understand the meaning of responsibility, devotion and gratitude, in a joint effort to consolidate the shield against the epidemic and win the battle for the defense of Shanghai.

SIG holds "Kids Guard Shanghai from COVID-19" Family Works Exhibition

To convey children's wish to beat the epidemic, the Labor Union of SIG held "Kids Guard Shanghai from COVID-19" Family Works Exhibition online. Families of SIG's staff have taken active part in the activity since the call for works was released. 119 children contributed a total of 136 works in the forms of calligraphy & painting, drawing, handiwork and photo, to support the fight against the epidemic and demonstrate their love during epidemic control. Glimmers of light can make a galaxy. Despite school suspension, children created a multitude of affectionate and childish works themed "fighting the epidemic", to pay highest respect to frontline medical workers and volunteers, express their admiration and praise for anti-epidemic heroes, and demonstrate their yearning for a good life after the epidemic. Some outstanding works are as follows:
