The National Alliance of Parents Organization (NAPO) held a huge activity yesterday to celebrate International Day of Families at the Hall, with 615 families in attendance.

About 2,500 participants shared a table with members of their family, painting on the tablecloth and writing down commitments for their family on the cloth. Vegetarian meals were also provided at each table.

Through such an event, the NAPO expected to promote the practice of dining with family members regularly, urging the governments to pay more attention to family education.

Admission to the event was NT$200 for a table seating four people. All funds will be use to help children and women in need.

5月15日由「全國家長團體聯盟」配合國際家庭日所舉辦的一場大型活動，吸引了各地共615個家庭前來參與這場盛會，

大約有2500人與他們的家人在全家專屬的餐桌親子共餐，也在特別設計的桌巾上用畫筆寫下對家人愛的承諾，然後再一起享用主辦單位提供的全家健康素食餐盒。

「全國家長團體聯盟」希望藉由這一次的活動推廣親子共餐的正面意義和重要性，並且提醒家長們要經常全家一起用餐，也督促政府更加重視家庭教育。

參加這次活動的報名費每個家庭200元，將全數捐給社福機構幫助弱勢的孩子和婦女。
