(XINHUA)

Huang Xiangqiong, a retired librarian, has moved many Chinese by voluntarily offering motherly love at a welfare house in Nanping, a city of southeast China's Fujian Province.

After retiring from her job as a college librarian in 2002, Huang has been a volunteer at the welfare house since 2004. She teaches reading, writing, and sports to disabled children.

Yang lives in the welfare house and thus neglects her family. "I don't come here for money. Compared with my family, children of the welfare house need me more. I should offer mother-like love to them, because they are motherless. As long as they are happy, I am happy too," said Huang.
