What we need

• Provide in-class / external visit support for an innovative eldercare program targeted at a group of higher form secondary students
• Facilitate group discussion on eldercare topics according to pre-defined curriculum and worksheet
• Support classroom management to ensure students follow the session activities and related logistics
• One class every Monday pm from now till mid Jun
• Looking for Cantonese-speaking volunteers who are passionate about working with teens. Education background would be great but not a must.
• Volunteers who can only support one session/ Golden age volunteers are also welcomed!

Background

Generation Hong Kong is constantly providing education to employment services to different underserved populations in HK. The Guardians of the Silver Age project aims to redefine care and foster a compassionate eldercare ecosystem in Hong Kong. The program has recently started a pilot in a secondary school to plant the seeds of compassion for elderly in the teenagers through knowledge transfer, interactive activities and reflection.

What we have

You will be volunteering with the program project manager, teachers and other supporting partners in the class. Prior briefing and session rundown will be provided.
