The speaker talked about how young people are influenced by their peers and transform this influence into a positive social force—volunteer service. During the epidemic, she was infected by her friends and began to provide support to poor families. She gradually combined her skills with volunteer service and founded the "Light Their Rights" organization to promote educational equality and youth volunteerism. Through free courses and exchange programs, the organization allows students from disadvantaged groups to access extracurricular education such as music, debate, and STEM, while also inspiring more young people to join the ranks of volunteers. The speaker emphasized the unique advantages of young people as volunteers: close psychological distance with children, more time to invest, and strong "contagion" to influence and drive others. She hopes to inspire more people to start the road of volunteering and infect more people to act together by sharing her own experience.
