On 20 June, we had a gathering with our donors, sponsors, volunteers, members and friends to celebrate the World\u2019s Refugee Day. Thank you for everyone\u2019s continuous support to our asylum seekers and refugees in Hong Kong!\u00a0<\/p>\n

REGULAR EVENTS<\/b><\/h5>\n

On a weekly basis, our office still offers a series of classes targeting asylum seekers and refugees with different age groups. These ongoing activities do not only provide opportunities for our members to learn, but also to socialise and to let them get out of the oppressive routine of feeling like prisoners-in-the-city without the opportunity to work and to contribute.<\/p>\n

Every Saturday, we have the Canadian Tutorial Session in our office, with a group of passionate volunteers from Canadian School teaching our children school assignments and assisting them to do revisions.<\/p>\n

\"Canadian<\/figure>\n

We also have professors from local universities holding Cantonese Class for our adults, enhancing their language proficiency and hence capability to integrate into the local community. Thank you for everyone\u2019s great contribution!<\/p>\n
