On 8th July, the Bank has organized an interesting Staff Volunteer Activity, Community Exploration As and With the Elderly, with the social enterprise Eldpathy. Members of CMB Wing Lung Volunteer Team who joined the activity were dressed up with the elderly simulation suit to taste the bittersweet daily life as an aged citizen. CMB Wing Lung Volunteer Team has also shared financial tips and the way to avoid telephone deception with elderlies from True Light Villa District Elderly Community Centre in Kwun Tong. Both elderlies and volunteers enjoyed the fun and meaningful activity very much. They all look forward to another chance to share the financial tips with each other in the future.

*Established in 2012, Eldpathy is a social enterprise which is named with an inspiration from the word "elderly" and "empathy". Eldpathy, which has served over 6,000 in the community, aims to promote the sense of worthiness among the elderly and to foster inter-generational harmony.
