"Affirming
our Foundation, Bringing Hope to the Future" is our slogan
for the agency's Fiftieth Anniversary Celebration. To celebrate
and share our appreciation on district level, a Working Group
on Community Networking and Liaison was formed and a series
of community projects will be organized in 
three
major serving areas of our agency - Tsimshatsui, Kwun Tong and
Shamshuipo District. Apart from celebrating our Fiftieth Anniversary,
there are at least three other objectives for the projects.
First of all, it is to show our heartfelt appreciation to our
service users,volunteers, cooperating parties and 
agencies
for their ongoing support in each community. Secondly, through
these community projects, we aim to enhance our community network
among different units of Agency and cooperation with other working
parties in the district. Thirdly, it is to promote our unique
agency and service image on districts level.
The
period from 5th October to 20th October 2002 has been named
as 'The Appreciation-Trio'. Throughout this set time, souvenirs
and appreciation letters will be distributed to our service
users, volunteers and our working partners in the community
to express our gratitude for their ongoing support. In addition,
all units would be 
decorated
and all staff would wear badges that are specially designed
to bring out the festivity of our Fiftieth Anniversary.
To promote
the uniqueness of our agency image as one that provides people-centered
and holistic social services, there will be three '50th 
Anniversary
Performances and Carnivals' organized in three districts, i.e.,
Tsimshatsui, Shamshuipo and Kwun Tong on 5th, 13th and 20th
October respectively. More than 30 service units will be involved
and each of the 
participating
units will invite their service users to perform and participate
in the celebration. It is also our great honor to invite Mr.
Lam Hei Chung, District Social Welfare Officer (Yau Tsim Mong),
Ms. Woo Ying Kay, District Social Welfare Officer (Shamshuipo),
Mr. Tam Kwok Kiu, MH, Chairman of Shamshuipo District Council
and Mrs. Chiu Lam Sau Lai, Assistant District Social Welfare
Officer (Kwun Tong) to be our honorable guests for the three
Performances and Carnivals in Tsimshatsui, Shamshuipo and Kwun
Tong respectively. Through these programs, we hope to promote
the unique image of our agency as a holistic multi-service agency
that has been and will continue to serve Hong Kong beyond the
fifty years .
