On November 22, Christian singer Will Liu shared on China's Twitter Weibo about their recent trip to Andre's Food Bank with Jay Chou's family.
The Taiwanese composer hoped children learn to be grateful through participating in charity and help people who are in need. He also expected that there were more testimonies of love during the challenging year of 2020.
He wrote on Weibo, " If families and children funded by Andre Food Bank know that in addition to many caring volunteers, we and Jay's family also packed food for them, they can face every day with more courage and hope!
Liu added: "I still remember that when Hannah Quinlivan saw the photos of Wanfei and I taking our children to the food bank to pack food when they were kids, she was looking forward to joining us. When Jay Chou knew that, he said he wants to go too. I scared him half-jokingly: In addition to packing, we also have to carry packages. Every time I finish, I get pain in my waist. You have spondylitis. Will this be a problem for you? He said, “Oh, it’s no problem!"
"Later, because of our work, we couldn't meet. But now we finally made the trip... and they also called on a bunch of good friends to bring their children to participate," He said.
Liu stated, "He has always been late for appointments with me, but he arrived earlier at the association than me that day. I can see he was serious about this. The volunteers and I made some brief introductions so that the participants could understand the meaning and value of the food bank, and then we start to work in groups."
"During the process, Jay Chou did a demonstration for the children, bending over to put food in boxes one by one. Hannah encouraged friends and children around her in English from time to time, and let some foreign friends know the whole process and sequence so that the whole thing went more smoothly."
He shared, "Knowing that the packages are for children who are in need, every one of them dedicated themselves to the work. The whole activity lasted for about three hours, and none of the children played around. I saw the simple and kind heart of them again. Because my three children had attended this activity many times in these years, they knew the process well, so they offered help to other children. Wanfei and I found it amusing and quite interesting. When we finally finished the task, everyone applauded for all the participants. The atmosphere was very loving and touching. We hope our children could be grateful for what they have now, not to waste food and know that even though they are young, they can still help those in need!"
"Although there are many challenges and regrettable things in 2020, we still believe that more testimonies of love will be born!"
Many fans were inspired by their behavior and left messages saying:"
"[Like][like]Two loving families [Support][Support]. You are the best example [Heart][Heart]. "
"Thanks for what Will Liu's family done and the positive energy passed by Jay Chou's family. Charity activities need more loving people like you. Thank everyone~~”
"A loving family. Parents are children's teachers and teach by personal examples. You who do charities together are the best. The people who love to get loves too. [Heart]"
