The launch of the volunteer service-themed cultural signs for the 15th National Games (NG), the 12th National Games for Persons with Disabilities (NGD) and the 9th National Special Olympic Games (NSOG) was held earlier at Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou.
The volunteer service emblem, echoing the main emblem of the 15th NG, the 12th NGD and the 9th NSOG, takes the shape of a heart as a whole, adopting the same visual concept of a blooming flower used in the main emblem.
The colours of the volunteer service emblem follow the main emblem’s tone, with Guangdong’s cotton red, Hong Kong’s bauhinia purple and Macau’s lotus green in the form of a concentric flower.
The Games’ volunteer service-themed cultural signs are important cultural symbols that carry the spirit of the NG, NGD and NSOG as well as the vision of the volunteer services.
The signs will be used conjointly in Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macau to further enhance collaboration of volunteer services among the three places.
On the same occasion, people in charge of volunteer services of the Games and volunteer service organisations in Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macau also shared and exchanged views on the Games’ volunteer services.
The volunteer service slogan is “Be more wonderful for you”. While “you” represents the events of the Games, and everyone who witnesses, participates in and supports the Games, “wonderful” is one of the requirements for hosting the Games, and also embodies the athletes’ excellent performance and volunteers’ contributions to the Games.
The volunteer nickname is Little Dolphin to signify that the volunteers from Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macau are friendly, lovely, motivated, intelligent and united like dolphins.
