In Guizhou's Rongjiang County, where devastating floods have displaced thousands, villagers from Zhongcheng rallied around a simple call: "Bring your kitchen knives and come help at the village office!"

Locals shut down their businesses, grabbed kitchen utensils and transformed a canteen into a frontline support kitchen. Over 12,000 hot meals are prepared daily for rescue workers – a powerful display of unity, resilience and compassion in the face of disaster.
