On June 1, Waterdrop Charity collaborated with Dami and Xiaomi, two autistic children's recovery institutions, to launch an autism children's care event in Shanghai. Waterdrop Charity volunteers gave gifts to the children on Children's Day. "There is no specific medication for autism. Early rehabilitation treatment is currently the most effective method, but if the progress is smooth, these children can grow up to live independently and even exhibit extraordinary talents in some areas." Staff members from Dami and Xiaomi Autism Children's Rehabilitation Institution shared at the event.
