Local Community Outreach Opportunities
Many of the Moms in our group volunteer their time and skills to serve others in the wider community here in Hong Kong, through Island ECC or by partnering with other local charities. We are often asked if we know of any volunteering opportunities by Moms looking to get involved in some way so have put together this list of the projects and organizations that we work with.
