Starseeds & Earthlings

Project by Winston Lau

《let us connect with life through art》 Are you happy? There is an invisible pressure everywhere in a city. Most of us are either overworked or forced to accept the mainstream values. Perhaps we have been brainwashed by fear and become a slave to money. Does this resonate with your heart? Do you long to live a different lifestyle outside of the current system of the society? If the answer is yes, then perhaps you are a starseed. We would like to invite you to join us in cultivating a nourishing phenomenon for all of us who have such feelings. Art and nature have the power to heal. We will together engage in a cycle of creative actions such as exhibitions, performances, art workshops, and healing sessions to nurture our heart and soul.

DENTICE Dental Outreach Service Trip in Thailand

Project by Dentice

DENTICE, being a portmanteau combining "Dental" and "Service", is established in 2014 by dental students in University of Hong Kong, who are dedicated to serving underprivileged communities by promoting oral health. In the past few years, our scope of service had extended to Hong Kong, mainland China, Cambodia and Sri Lanka communities. This year, collaborating with Cheerful Life Foundation, a Thai NGO providing supports to lower-profile individuals, DENTICE will organize an outreach service trip to Bangkok in the coming summer, providing necessary preventive dental treatments and oral health information to the lower-class children and villagers there through the efforts of dentists and dental students in our team. We hope this project will not only promote oral health awareness amongst our participants, but will also inspire fellow dental students to take the initiative to serve the underprivileged.

Sai Kung Stray Friends Foundation – Providing Education Outside The Classroom

Project by Michaela Mok

Hi I’m Michaela Mok, a fresh graduate from Good Hope School. I was first associated with SKSFF two years ago when I had to propose and carry out an internal activity at school to prove my worth in order to join my school’s student council. I ended up calling it “Pause for Paws” (great title I know), an awareness campaign for local stray dogs. Narelle was nice enough to arrange to bring pups and a few dogs to school and this made the event interactive and really got the message across students. After successfully earning my spot on the student council, I went back a couple times to see my furry friends. My mom, Linda Jackson, now an active volunteer at SKSFF got me involved in a few of their activities, including face-painting, fundraising, shaking buckets etc. Last year, the school suggested I enter a local competition called “Community Leaders of Tomorrow” where funds were given to me and my partner to carry out an activity for a charity of our choice. Without hestitation, we went straight back to Narelle and SKSFF to organise Pause for Paws version 2.0, where we went to shake buckets and raise awareness outside the Rugby Sevens. This event brought both students and teachers together as well as the community and even got the attention of the Education Bureau who later invited us to give a lecture about our experience to professors and students alike at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. Though we did not win CLT, we were rewarded with the Most Popular Project Award. Upon finishing my public exams and graduating, I received a call about Pause for Paws creating buzz within the Education Bureau and that they would like my partner and I to appear on a television programme about student-led projects in collaboration with RTHK. Needless to say, SKSFF has opened a series of doors in my life, leading me to different opportunities and for that I am forever grateful. Among all the events, it puts a smile on my face to see our community willingly come together to pitch in to help our furry friends. Each dollar spent on the dogs is put to good use with medical care, food and maintenance, all ensuring a better life for the dogs, as said in SKSFF’s motto. During my few visits to the kennel, I have grown to love each of the 106 dogs there, understanding their back stories and personalities. I hope tonight’s event with help of the fringebacker can provide enough assistance to the shelter to keep making a difference, one canine at a time.
