Among the shortlisted volunteers, there is a college-bound student named Huang Yanqi. Different from those working candidates, he is now a senior student of Quanzhou No.5 Middle School.
Living downtown in Quanzhou, Yanqi is studying at the International Department of Quanzhou No.5 Middle School. He has been pre-admitted by one of the renowned universities due to his outstanding academic performance. He is proficient in English with a remarkable TOFEL score of 110. As a top student in his class, Yanqi is the designated interpreter for his foreign teachers at every teacher-parent meeting. He’s been playing football since primary school, and is an excellent player in the school football team.
At a young age, Yanqi has rich experience in volunteer service. He’s served as a volunteer at the train station to help the travelers during the Spring Festival and served tea for free on West Street during summer vacation. He’s volunteered to be an usher in Jinjiang Municipal Hospital, donated his allowance to one of the Hope Schools, and visited the students he once helped. "It was out of curiosity and the idea of enriching my experience that I began volunteering. But later in practice, there were so many unforgettable and heart-warming moments that have taught me the true value of volunteer work," he said.
Yanqi also said with a smile that he has a particular affinity with ISF Jinjiang 2020 Gymnasiade. He once took part in the Gymnasiade Image Ambassador Selection and was shortlisted in the final competition. He is still impressed by those wonderful and precious experiences. "Ke Xipeng, the winner of the competition, is my senior schoolmate. I’d like to devote myself to the Jinjiang 2020 Gymnasiade like her, no matter in what way and in which position," he said.
To Yanqi, the most important thing for being a volunteer is to be devoted, responsible, and professional. And now he is ready for it!
