YWCA is committed to enhancing the wellness of the elderly and promoting innovative services. The Association garnered a number of awards at the “Opportunities for the Elderly Project 2023/24” (OEP) organised by the Social Welfare Department lately. “Muppet Show - Healing with Pleasure” implemented by Wan Wah Care and Attention Home for the Elderly was the champion among the two-year projects. Ming Yue District Elderly Community Centre’s "Abundant Life Project" won the second runner-up and a creative award in the same category.

YWCA nominated outstanding young people of the Youth Employment and Training Programme (YETP) to run for the Most Improved Trainees 2024. Rinna Mok received the Most Improved Trainees Award, which recognised her effort and motivated her to advance career development. 

The Association produced "A Child Who Has Never Seen The World Before", the first local micro movie on perinatal bereavement, to reveal the struggles of bereaved parents and arouse public awareness on pregnancy and infant loss. YWCA’s President Ms. Helen Lee, Chief Executive Ms. Yvonne Yeung, Deputy Chief Executive Ms. Emily Li accompanied our guests, including Dr. Rex Hung from the Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust; Professor Cecilia Chan, JP, from the Department of Social Work and Social Administration, the University of Hong Kong; Dr.

The Association was glad to be invited to participate in AS Watson Project LOL Elderly Visit again, to share love with 2,000 elderly living across the territory. YWCA's Deputy Chief Executive Ms. Emily Lee joined Mr. Dominic Lai, Chairman of AS Watson Group, Dr. Malina Ngai, Group CEO of AS Watson Group and representatives from other participating companies and organisations, to kick off the visit and cheer for the volunteers.

“Railway 101” was jointly organised by MTR Academy and the Hong Kong Island Elder Academies Cluster, operated by YWCA. 40 elder participants acquired basic knowledge of the railways and enhanced their safety awareness when riding on the MTR. They became "Caring Ambassadors" at the end of the programme and promoted safe and smart mobility.

YWCA “Career and life development supportive service for young mothers” assists “young mothers” to perform the role of a mother while pursuing study, career and other possible life goals. The programme was granted “The 6th Hong Kong Ten Outstanding Community Services Award” by Lions Clubs International District 303 - Hong Kong & Macao, China.

Many senior citizens prefer sticking to their own community and rarely have the opportunity to go out. Thanks to Shui On Seagull Club for organising a one-day trip which allowed grassroots elderly to explore North District. They visited different tourist attractions and enjoyed a delicious veggie meal with the volunteers. The participants spent a meaningful and wonderful weekend together.
