With references to the rapid growth of food price, Baptist Oi Kwan Social Service (BOKSS) has been providing inexpensive meals for low-income families in helping them to ease the financial burden of the underprivileged communities. Apart from food services, the organization has extended their services provision to underprivileged children. HKUST Volunteers were recruited to provide tutorial classes and play interactive games with these children after meal in the canteen. On 20 November 2014, our student leaders, awardees of the Public Service Leadership (PSL) and Ambassador for Community Engagements(Connect ACE) also participated in the service and designed some mini-games for children to play during the service.
