Since 2010, HKUST students volunteered to serve senior citizens in the Tseung Kwan O community monthly. In Dec 2021, volunteers reached 80 flats of single elderly or elderly couples in King Lam Estate. Volunteers distributed Christmas gift packs with food and sanitizing tools to the recipients. They had quick chats during the visit to give care to the elderly and spread happiness during the Christmas period. The time spent together enables HKUST students to build a close relationship with the elders in the community.
