NWDS always has close ties with the community. In the past, our stores often initiated store-based volunteer activities and received a lot of positive feedbacks from local communities. In view of this, the Company set up the NWDS Volunteer Team in April 2013 to unify our caring and power to better serve the society. As at 30 June 2022, nearly 1,000 volunteers were recruited to carry out more volunteer services in a wide spectrum covering education, caring for the elderly, helping the under-privileged groups, environmental protection and assisting the disabled, etc.. Carrying through the spirit of love and adhering to our vision of "social responsibility, innovation, people-oriented, pursuit of excellence", the Company will encourage and motivate more NWDS staff to participate in volunteer services and to join our hands to build a harmonious society.
