"Learn from Lei Feng Day" is a day observed in China on March 5th each year. It is named after Lei Feng, a young soldier in the People's Liberation Army of China, who became a symbol of selflessness, altruism, and dedication to serving others. The day is dedicated to promoting volunteerism, kindness, and helping others in the spirit of Lei Feng.
Lei Feng's life was portrayed as an exemplary model of socialist values during the era of Mao Zedong. After his death in 1962, a diary supposedly written by Lei Feng was discovered, detailing his selfless acts and commitment to helping others. The Chinese government has since promoted Lei Feng as a role model, and "Learn from Lei Feng Day" encourages citizens to engage in volunteer activities, charitable deeds, and acts of kindness.
On this day, schools, communities, and organizations often organize events and activities to promote the values associated with Lei Feng, emphasizing the importance of community service and helping those in need.
