Embrace! 樂也融融

There are about 260,000 ethnic minorities in Hong Kong (except domestic helpers) and the number has increased by 70% over the past 10 years. However, they may have difficulties adapting to the local community due to language barriers and cultural difference, which affect the development of ethnic minority children a lot.

In view of this, a team of Connect Ambassador for Community Engagement (Connect ACE) partnered with Hong Kong Family Welfare Society - ATAA Jockey Club Tseung Kwan O Youth Square to initiate a service project with an aim to motivate EM children to embrace the local Hong Kong culture through various activities. We are now recruiting volunteers to assist and facilitate ethnic minority children age 6-10 in the activities to discover the similarities among different cultures.

香港的少數族裔人數日漸增加，他們在生活中面對着不同的困難，如文化和語言上的差異，因而難以融入本地生活，這對少數族裔小朋友的成長影響更甚。

有見及此，四位科大侍學行的社群服務參與大使與香港家庭福利會藝進同學會賽馬會將軍澳青年坊合辦「樂也融融」計劃，透過不同的活動讓小朋友更了解不同文化的相同之處，從而鼓勵他們欣賞本地文化，並融入其中。機構現招募科大同學擔任義工，協助帶領工作坊遊戲。
