Hong Chengmu, who was named "the greatest delivery courier" in East China's Fujian Province, helped 72 homeless persons over three years. In October, Hong coordinated with the police and other warm-hearted people, successfully helping a homeless man who had been away for six years to reunite with his family.

Hong is a food deliveryman who needs to go from street to street during his work. Because he often pays attention to the suspected missing people and helps those in need to find a home, he has become a volunteer. 

In September, Hong saw a homeless man wandering about the street. He contacted another volunteer surnamed Ma, a keen policeman helping social assistance stations check information on homeless people. Ma's team worked with 100 of such stations in China to help lost people find their families. Hong posted a video online to ask for netizens' help. Fortunately, the homeless man's family who have been waiting for him to come back saw the video.

They expressed their gratitude to the police and other helpers like Hong and Chen. "I hope that more warm-hearted people can join our team and help the homeless around us so that they can all return to their families as soon as possible." Hong said.
