The JC Engage Digital Program aims to empower Hong Kong NGOs with essential resources and skills to engage with your audience effectively and amplify your social impact.
Through our program, we will help you translate your organization’s key strategic objectives into a marketing message that you can readily deliver to your audience. We strongly believe that NGOs can harness the power of video storytelling to cut through the crowded media environment, to get your voices heard and bring in the support you need to further advance your cause. The course also offers practical video making tips to help NGOs get started.
Hong Kong Society for the Blind (HKSB) was established in 1956. It provides a wide range of services for persons with multiple disabilities and visual impairment (MDVI), and residential care for the aged blind. HKSB has started their journey with ACS since last year at the Mind Matters event – a Hackathon for Social Impact. In May, HKSB participated in HKJC ENGAGE – Video Storytelling Series and went through a series of training. With their hard work, they were recognized as one of the winners for the video production service.

There are more than four hundred and fifty thousand elderlies with vision impairment in Hong Kong who are much more likely to suffer from mood disorders according to studies. Amid the pandemic, the social-distancing measures prevented the visually-impaired elderlies from going out or participating in social activities, leading to the deterioration of their mental health. To actively respond to the mental health needs of the visually impaired elderly who live in nursing homes during the period, The Hong Kong Society for the Blind (HKSB) implemented a mental health project, Mindful Music last year. Building upon the positive feedback of this initiative, HKSB is looking to promote the Mindful Music project in the community of caregivers for the visually impaired elderly, encouraging them to use music to improve the mental health.
香港有多於45萬的視障長者，他們患有情緒病的機會比一般人高出最少一倍。在疫情期間，社交距離措施令視障長者未能外出，進行社交活動，導致精神健康狀態愈趨惡劣。 香港盲人輔導會 HKSB在去年推出「『正』享『 樂』齡 進行曲」項目(Mindful Music) 積極回應疫情下安老院內視障長者的精神健康需要。由於很多視障長者未能入住院舍，香港盲人輔導會希望能把此項目推廣至視障長者照顧者社群，鼓勵照顧者利用音樂，提升長者的精神健康。

There is a strong and predominantly negative social stigma surrounding a Migrant Domestic Worker (MDW) pregnancy in HK.

Besides being employees, they are mothers too.
