This is the fifth collaboration between HKUST and Lok Chi Association to serve the mentally challenged. Our student volunteers organized two workshops on food, nutrition, and nutrition labelling, followed by a session of making sushi and chocolate together. Both the service recipients and the volunteers enjoyed spending the afternoon with one another. With better understanding towards the mentally challenged, our students were able to appreciate and embrace people with similar situations.
