Performing public welfare is one kind of life style, such as running, marathon, both of which can be combined with public welfare. Haruki Murakami found out the inspirations of life enlightenment and art creations through running. When running, how can we perform public welfare?

As a side event of 2015 Xiamen International Marathon, the Xiamen Marathon Expo was held at the Xiamen sports center from December 12, 2014 to January 2, 2015. FLFC also set a public welfare booth on site to present public welfare projects, distribute supplies and conduct interesting interactions. The theme of this exhibition was "The Rhythm of Youth, Walk Together for Love". Volunteers from School of Mechanical Engineering and Automation, Huaqiao University, who cared about charity work, assisted the fund landing activity of volunteer service of FLFC with great enthusiasm.


As volunteers of FLFC, students from Huaqiao University leaved school to the site of marathon public welfare meeting early in the morning. The spirited volunteers were exceptionally vigorous in work and arranged all the things quickly! Now, having just finished arrangement, they took a cute  photo with FLFC happily.

Then, volunteers began to devote themselves into the presentation of FLFC. In a few minutes, there came the first donator. After inquiring of the volunteers about the relevant information, she donated 20 yuan into the collection box ardently and said that she would keep concerning herself with FLFC.

Volunteers introduced FLFC to people actively and they met many foreign friends. Thanks to the excellent abilities of the volunteers, they communicated freely. “Just do it.” This word gave great confidence and encouragement to the volunteers.


To deliver love, we should start from childhood. Here came a young kid, he had the sense of help others at such a young age. Bravo! Let’s cheer for the flowers of our country.

During the activity, there were many benefactors inquired about the information of FLFC one after another, among whom had already knew Free Lunch before. Of course, it was the first time for some people to meet FLFC, but they were very interested in it and donated finally.

At the main site, the host introduced the public welfare activities of Xiamen Marathon to everyone. The representatives of FLFC and representatives from other public welfare organizations went on the stage together and introduced their own activities. Bravo! Go on, public welfare! Go on,FLFC!

The volunteers worked hard to present and introduce the relevant knowledge so that this activity collected a big sum of donation for the children in the mountainous areas, by scanning two-dimensional code and collecting cash. We hope that more benefactors can join in our public welfare activities and FLFC in the new year.
