In the first activity, “Love · Care · Boundaryless”, an outstanding team that had received subsidy from the I·CARE Social Service Projects Scheme for more than once, was invited to share their bittersweet experience in serving asylum seekers in Hong Kong amid the COVID-19 pandemic.  One of the beneficiaries also turned up to talk about how the project had deepened asylum seekers’ understanding of Hong Kong and what kind of support they had garnered during the epidemic outbreak.

As for the second activity, Mr. Tony Chan, Co-founder and Director of LxM and Craving Good, served as the guest to recount his experience in leading university students to provide educational services in Myanmar.  Mr. Chan also introduced his project which converted face-to-face classes into online ones during the epidemic outbreak so that the Burmese children could keep learning without interruption.  He then shared the work of his social enterprise and encouraged participants to serve overseas communities through innovative initiatives.
