Two residential communities in northeast Chinese city of Harbin recently organized an activity of making Jiaozi, or dumplings, for low-income families ahead of the Spring Festival.

Harbin Daily reports that leaders and some residents of the Shengzhong and Sanke communities purchased meat, vegetables, flour and seasoning with their own money and made over 600 kilograms of dumplings.

The dumplings with 12 different kinds of fillings will be sent to the low-income families before the Spring Festival. Each family is expected to get around 5 kilograms and each of the families who are unable to work and have special financial difficulties will be given 10 kilograms.

In addition, dealers of meat, vegetable, flour and seasoning were also involved in this heart-warming activity by selling the best-quality goods at the cheapest price.

The Shengzhong residential community has held this considerate activity for six years successively.
