2200 volunteers are ready for the Paralympic Sailing Competition which will be held from 8th to 13th in September.
These volunteers will be assigned to work in posts mainly providing services at Paralympic venues. Their work will include helping with guest reception, language translation, transportation, security and medical services, among other designated areas.
Systematic training has been organized, focusing on volunteers' abilities to help people with disabilities. Over 90 percent of the Paralympic volunteers had also served for the recently concluded Olympic Sailing Competition. All Paralympics volunteers are determined to be "promoters of the Olympic spirit" and "practitioners of the volunteer service concept," as well as "representatives of China's peaceful development image." Their patient, friendly attitudes will help deliver people-oriented services for the approaching Paralympic Games in the hopes of creating a warm and comfortable environment for athletes.
