The highlight of the evening was the wonderful performances by members of CCBAG, Weixiao Vocal Ensemble, and Yuanyin Qin Society. The CCBAG Children's Band and CCBAG Youth Band were full of energy, the children from Weixiao Vocal Ensemble conveyed warmth through their songs, and the Yuanyin Qin Society's guzheng ensemble was breathtaking, with some children even performing while seated on the floor, showcasing their artistic talent and selfless dedication. Whether it was the heartwarming choral singing or the energetic band performances, the children delivered a visual feast for the audience.This charity gala not only brought joy to the community but also raised valuable funds for the "Safety Net" charity. On August 20th, the arts troupe donated to the charity Clothing Bank for a project fundraiser. The "Safety Net" provides assistance to families in need, including emergency aid, educational support, and psychological counseling. For 30 years, the organization has played a vital role in the local community, particularly in helping children with special needs.
