TU Citizen 2021 Participant Wing Tung
"There are so many tasks that want us to break through ourselves and get out of our comfort zone. If I hadn't participated in this event, I never thought that I would go to watch the sunrise, go to the street and ask foreigners to pretend to be chickens. These experiences are considered passable. I will remember it for a long time!
I feel that this program is very different from other programs. It does not focus on serving some disadvantaged groups, but understands them from different angles and understands them with empathy. Those who are capable are Help as much as possible, even if you have no ability, you can use your own power to awaken the consciousness of others.
In the end, of course, I met a lot of like-minded friends. I never thought that I would find friends who live in the same district and have the same life as the same month. I also never thought that everyone can help and support each other even if they know each other for a long time. This true friendship will always be remembered in my heart. "
