We are looking for 40 corporate volunteers to take part
in the ‘Journey of
Opportunity
’ Action Day on Friday 30 May. Corporate
volunteers will have the opportunity to make a positive impact on the
lives of young people in Tin Shui Wai whilst at the same time enhancing
their own experiences – both personal and professional.
Corporate volunteers will be part of a team that takes a group of 10
young people between the ages of 16 and 18 on a journey from their home
district of Tin Shui Wai, to a university institution where they will
experience life on campus and then on to a corporate office to get an
insight into the world of work. The
day will end with a recreational activity – a visit to the Grand
Cinema at the Elements Shopping Mall.
Throughout the day, the role of the corporate volunteers will be to act
as a mentor:
·
interacting with the
young people in their team
·
seeking to understand
their personal aspirations
· encouraging them to continue their
studies
· inspiring them to think through their
future job
opportunities
All corporate volunteers will be required to:
·
attend a 90 minute Briefing Session
on
Friday 23 May (3.30pm – 5pm)
· participate in the
entire Action Day on
Friday 30 May 2008 (8am – 9.30pm)
Corporate volunteers will be selected from a number of different
companies and allocated to one of four teams.
Each team will be headed by a Corporate Team Leader and
Co-Leader. If you are
interested in being a corporate volunteer, please complete and return
the Corporate
Volunteer Nomination Form by 13 May to
kelvin@communitybusiness.org.hk
