Objective
Volunteers to be actively involved in planning and carrying out programmes that bring joy to residents of nursing homes and enriching the quality of their life.
Past involvement
Di Zang Lin collaborated with Man Fut Tong Nursing Home from 2010 to 2017. During this period, volunteers visited the nursing home monthly to carry out social activities for the residents. Yearly excursion or parties were also organised and periodic donations to the nursing home. In 2017, Di Zang Lin ended their partnership with Man Fut Tong Nursing Home as there was a greater need for help at Serene and Irene nursing homes.
Nature of programme
Di Zang Lin’s volunteers run activities for the residents in Serene and Irene Nursing Homes on the first week of every month. Besides engaging the residents with games and songs, Di Zang Lin also presents the residents of the Nursing Homes with small gift packs filled with daily necessities at the end of each session. Serene and Irene Nursing Homes were selected as they were in dire need of financial and social support.
