Intergenerational Learning and Interaction

Workshops and events are designed to allow younger individuals to gain insights into the experiences of the older generation, fostering respect and empathy for them. At the same time, these initiatives provide an opportunity for seniors to understand the perspectives of the younger generation, bridging generation gaps and promoting mental well-being.

Festival Celebration

Celebrating festivals with seniors helps preserve our cultural traditions while offering valuable opportunities to strengthen family and friendship bonds, share joy and create lasting memories. Some festivals that we celebrate include the Dumpling Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival.
