HIT Community Caring Group (2)Community Caring Group (CCG)
Since its inception in 2002, the Community Caring Group (CCG) has been making valuable contributions to help the disadvantaged.
 
Among those that CCG aims to help are senior citizens, the disabled and the mentally challenged. Understanding that charity starts at home, CCG has been focusing its efforts in the Kwai Tsing and Tsuen Wan districts.

Working closely with HWL Volunteer Team and the Yan Chai Hospital Group, CCG actively organises outdoor activities, visits and festival celebrations. These activities also allow our volunteers to develop close relationships with the elderly people that we serve.  

CCG's efforts are highly recognised, with the majority of projects receiving support from HIT.

Graffiti WorkshopGraffiti Workshop
HIT and the Warehouse Teenage Club, a local NGO, jointly organised the first Graffiti Workshop for students in the Kwai Tsing area in 2014.  The workshop provides a platform for the students to learn about graffiti art.  The rubbish bins they painted are placed in HIT’s container yard to help promote the message of keeping the terminal environment clean.  In 2015, the coverage of the programme was extended to the elderly from South Kwai Chung Service Centre.  A terminal tour was also arranged for the elderly and students to learn more about the container terminal.
