Organized Staff Volunteer Activity – Traditional Chinese Wedding Dress with Phoenix Crown Headpiece Clay Doll Workshop
The Bank has organized its second volunteer activity in 2016 with “Handmade 38C”* of the Hong Kong Young Women Christian’s Association (HKYWCA) on 9th July (Saturday). With “inheritance” as the theme of the workshop, participated elderly are able to share the marriage tradition in their good old days with CMB Wing Lung Volunteer Team. On the day of the workshop, CMB Wing Lung Volunteer Team visited Chi Po Neighbourhood Elderly Centre located in Sham Shui Po, to accompany 20 gray hair ladies to make their own traditional Chinese wedding dresses and phoenix crown headpieces with clay. Though the process of making the handcraft was challenging, the laughter and grin of CMB Wing Lung Volunteer Team and grey hair ladies showed their great satisfaction upon completion.
*The Hong Kong Young Women's Christian Association (HKYWCA) was established in 1920. “Handmade 38C”, which is managed by the Continuing Education Department of HKYWCA, wishes to use handmade products as a medium to open up people’s heart and spread the message of love.
