30 years is a period during which a baby grows up to be an adult and a young tree becomes a towering one. Zhongshan Charity Parade welcomes her 30th anniversary in 2017.

30 years may be a short period of time in history, but it witnesses Zhongshan citizens’ devotion to charity. The Charity Parade that has been handed down for 30 years has witnessed so many touching stories. After 30 years, the Charity Parade has not only become a China Charity Award culture program, but also become an indispensable part of Zhongshan peoples’ lives. It interprets the connotation of Zhongshan, a city of charity, and the morality of Zhongshan people.

You might wonder what makes the annual parade going on for 30 years. The organizer's answer is "love". Love connects all the participants, whether they are familiars or strangers. The Red Cross, a universal symbol of morality and civilization, units all philanthropic people in the world. They want harmony in the world. Harmony among man, society, and nature.

In all, in the past three decades the Charity Parade has raised over 1.2 billion Yuan for public welfare projects including hospital, school, nursing home for old people and so on. The money raised helped more than 1 million people in disasters and 200 million Yuan has been subsidized to 200 thousand people in poverty in recent 5 years.
