Project SASA (South Asians Support Alliance) launched in March 2004, was sponsored by the Community Investment and Inclusion Fund of the Government. The Project aims at developing a mutual supportive network among South Asians as well as those with the local communities in Shamshuipo and Kwun Tong districts.

Project SASA is a special pioneer project in engaging the ethnic minority groups., Their major emphasis is to encourage active participation of our service targets. It aims at (1) enhancing South Asians’ understanding and accessibility to community resources available to support their social adjustment in Hong Kong; (2) facilitating self-help and mutual support among South Asian ethnic communities; (3) equipping South Asians with the necessary living skills so they can fully develop their potentials, and (4) promoting social assimilation between South Asians and the local people. It is our goal that South Asians become more involved and empowered resulting in the overall enhancement of our society.

Recently, we have started to enrol members to join our social skills classes, family activities and community visits. We have also begun to provide drop-in service and consultation service to South Asians. We are pleased to witness an increase in membership and look forward to more new members in the future. We would like to extend our invitations to all parties concerned to join us in building up a harmonious society.

The office of Project SASA (South Asians Support Alliance) is located at the sub-office of Shamshuipo central Happy Teens Club. Your participation and opinion are most welcome.
