Demonstrating the spirit of love and communal harmony
By bringing forces from different demographics into this ‘HH Social Club’ Tuen Ng Volunteer Visit, Hopewell aimed to ignite the hope of living among the singleton elderly from St. James’ Funeral Navigation Service. In comparison with last year’s visit, Hopewell reached out to more singleton elderly for there was a 50% increase in the number of visited units and volunteers. The thoughtful formation of each volunteer team with a good mix of community members has truly demonstrated the spirit of love and unity, as well as communal harmony between the abled and disabled.
To express its gratitude toward volunteers, Hopewell purchased some exquisite velvet pins handmade by St. James’ members as presents. Representatives from St. James also briefed through the cases with the team prior to the visits, which enabled volunteers to conduct better communication with the elderly and at the same time identify their needs. The Panda Hotel volunteers prepared rice dumplings made with “Five Grains” and in a lighter size, which better suit the appetite of the elderly.
