Since 2023, TA TUN and the True Goodness and Beauty Foundation have joined hands to enter the world of children with intellectual disabilities. This year marks our third joint participation in the sports day.
The sun shone brightly that day, its light illuminating every innocent face. Volunteers ran and played alongside the children. A simple encouragement: ‘You can do it!’ would fill them with boundless joy; a heartfelt ‘Big brother! Big sister!’ would instantly melt our hearts.
At the venue, there was no pressure of competition, no anxiety over winning or losing. Only boundless mutual support and encouragement, where sweat and laughter intertwined to create the most moving scenes. Through steadfast trust, they learn to bravely be themselves, opening their hearts to embrace every challenge. Each child is like a warm seedling. Volunteers nurture them with care, illuminating their lives with love. In the children’s pure eyes, we see hope and the strength to persevere.
Beyond the sports day, each year on the eve of Mother’s Day, we visit numerous families of children with special needs. We personally deliver Mother’s Day cakes and heartfelt gifts to honour those mothers who silently guard and selflessly give—they are the strongest pillars in their children’s lives and the gentlest presence on this journey.
This is more than a sports day; it is a meeting of souls, a profound encounter of hearts. Through companionship, we build a kinder, more inclusive world, allowing love’s power to transcend every barrier and become the gentlest, most steadfast source of strength in the lives of these children.
On the road ahead, we shall continue to walk alongside them, for every smile is the most dazzling light in this world.
