Volunteers showing care to the dogs

Volunteers joined hands in assisting the construction and cleanup of an animal shelter center for a better living environment for abandoned animals. The team also tried to raise the awareness of abandoned animals by holding a post-service exhibition on campus.

Student Sharing

Coming to Tuen Mun today, I discovered a totally different side of Hong Kong. The living environment for strayed dogs is not that well-developed. I was touched when we worked together to make a better shelter, remove the trash and make it cleaner for the dogs. It is an unforgettable service experience; I have learnt a lot and I feel that Hong Kong has a lot more problems that we haven’t discovered yet.

Building Shelters for abandoned animals are much more practical than visiting them or buying food to them. They deserved to live in a better place! We played with them after the service and they are so cute! Why don’t we do more for them?
