Caojiadu Subdistrict
Caojiadu covers over 1.49 square kilometers and is home to more than 70,000 residents, making it the most densely-populated subdistrict in Jing’an. Local residents can access facilities such as shops, stadiums and healthcare centers within a 15minute walk.
The community service center has incorporated small stores offering services to repair shoes, cut door keys, mend clothes and more, providing curbside vendors a fixed place to run their business and local people with convenience.
In its latest move to better serve local people, the center has launched different themed activities like “housekeeping day” and “laundry day” to collectively provide identical services.
The active participation of local people in community affairs helps a lot in building a livable community.
Take a community project called “micro-charity” as an example.
It was designed to encourage local people to work with officials to solve headaches in community management, take part in volunteering locally, give suggestions for urban renewal programs and care for the young and the elderly in the neighborhoods.
Since its launch in 2015, 505 programs have been launched, benefiting more than 70,000 people.
This month, a variety of activities under the “micro-charity” project have been held, including a charity fair at the Da’an Garden residential complex, a flea market at the Huafang residential complex, a sports meeting at the Sihe Garden residential complex and a healthcare consultation class in the Wuxi neighborhood.
