On April 25, the 2026 “A Bag of Milk Hike” charity event came to a successful conclusion. For the first time, this year’s event was held simultaneously in three locations: downtown Changzhou, Jintan District, and Liyang City. The downtown route incorporated elements of red culture through “Long March-themed stations,” creatively combining the charity hike with the spirit of the Long March, and attracted numerous citizens and corporate teams to participate.
The Centuray team gathered as scheduled and successfully completed this walking challenge. This marks the tenth consecutive year that Centuray employees have participated in this urban charity event.
Ten Years Together, Our Original Aspiration Remains Unchanged
Since the launch of the “A Bag of Milk Walkathon” in 2014, the event has been held for thirteen consecutive years. Centuray joined this charity relay in 2016 and is now in its tenth year of participation. Over the past decade, the walkathon has become a tradition in Centuray’s annual charitable initiatives and an integral part of its corporate culture.
Early on the morning of the event, Centuray employees gathered in an orderly fashion at the starting point of the route in the city center. After changing into their matching walking gear and taking a group photo in front of the starting arch, they joined the city’s crowd of compassionate participants. Along the way, “Long March-themed stations” drew participants to stop and take photos; the red-themed display boards and the enthusiastic guidance of volunteers added a unique spiritual dimension to this charity walk. As they walked, the employees stayed together in groups and encouraged one another.
Committing to Public Welfare Goes Beyond a Single Walkathon
“The Journey of a Bag of Milk” is a microcosm of Centuray’s philanthropic efforts. Over the years, while promoting high-quality development, the company has consistently fulfilled its corporate social responsibilities and built a diversified philanthropic system:
Centuray Zhou Chaimei Qianwan Guangcai Foundation
Established in 2019 with an initial endowment of 10 million yuan, the foundation focuses on educational support and care for the elderly, and promotes the implementation of public welfare projects through standardized operations;
Fan Mingwu & Jin Liangzan Joint Education Fund
Established in 2022, it leverages the research strengths of Huazhong University of Science and Technology to support talent development and technological breakthroughs in the field of materials science.
In addition, the company continues to carry out public welfare projects such as the Southwest Jiaotong University Scholarship, the drinking water project at the Wucha campus in Xinjiang, the construction of facilities at remote elementary schools, and visits to children’s homes.
Moving Forward, Growing Alongside the City
Over the past decade of charity walks, we have witnessed the spirit of philanthropy in our city and documented the unwavering commitment of Centuray’s employees. We extend our gratitude to every employee and family member who participated in this event. Moving forward, Centuray will continue to focus on our core business and pursue innovative development, while fulfilling our corporate social responsibilities to even higher standards, ensuring that our philanthropic efforts remain steady and sustainable.
