With the rapid growth of new economic formats such as e-commerce platforms, express and logistics enterprises, a new group of special workers represented by delivery couriers, ride-hailing drivers, and e-commerce live-streamers have gradually become an indispensable part of people’s daily life. They tirelessly navigate every corner of the city, delivering warmth and convenience to all.
Despite their long working hours and high labor intensity, those workers often lack necessary protection of rights and interests and a sense of belonging in the city. PROYA has paid close attention to this group of urban creators and guardians, hoping to care about them for a better life.
During the Lantern Festival, PROYA Foundation collaborated with the Federation of Trade Unions of Xihu District, Hangzhou, the Party Building Office of Xixi Street and several philanthropic companies to organize the activity of “Care on Lantern Festival”.
Through this event, PROYA fulfilled the "micro-wishes" of 13 special workers. These micro-wishes may seem simple, but are their most pressing and practical daily needs.
"A new pair of sports shoes" could provide greater comfort while they rush orders or enjoy leisure time for exercise. "An electric bike shock absorber" would ensure smoother deliveries and alleviate the weariness from bumpy rides. "A set of cosmetics for the wife" would convey love, allowing their wives to start each day feeling beautiful and uplifted.
Behind each wish lies a story of an ordinary person in their daily life - perhaps someone silently contributing to his family, or tirelessly striving for his dreams.
Moreover, PROYA Foundation prepared PROYA skincare sets for 24 special workers, hoping that amidst their intense and demanding work, they can take care of themselves and their beloved ones.
PROYA Foundation extends its heartfelt blessings to those hardworking special workers, wishing their lives to be as warm and comforting as the lanterns of the Lantern Festival, and their futures filled with brightness. Meanwhile, we continuously pay attention to new employment groups, providing them with more support and assistance, so that every corner of the city brims with warmth and care.
