Empowering Next Generation through Education and Nurturing
Recognising that the future lies in the hands of the next generation, we are dedicated to fostering their growth and development through meaningful opportunities. Through a variety of initiatives and youth-focused programmes, we create a dynamic and inclusive environment where young people can learn, connect, and contribute. By fostering opportunities for personal and professional growth, we aim to inspire creativity, build resilience, and cultivate leadership skills. The younger generation plays a vital role in our sustainability initiatives, which aim to nurture the talents, encourage collaboration, and prepare them to shape a future defined by openness, innovation, and inspiration.
Internship and Scholarship
Golden Age Foundation x Saint Francis University x Pine Residence Internship Programme
A three-phase internship programme was launched at Pine Care Group by Golden Age Foundation, in collaboration with Saint Francis University Hong Kong, involving 25 Higher Diploma in Health Studies students. The programme covers 14 modules, including medication management, specialised care techniques, manual handling skills, use of mobility aids, personal hygiene care, and health monitoring.
The first phase of the internship began successfully in early June 2024, with dedicated guidance from mentors. The interns actively participated in daily operations, assisting elderly residents with daily activities, monitoring health indicators, and supporting rehabilitation training.
Through this internship, students gained invaluable hands-on experience, enhanced professional skills, and deepened their understanding of the elderly care industry’s scale and development trends. This will help them plan their future career paths. Most importantly, the programme fosters intergenerational communication and understanding by encouraging direct interaction with elderly residents.
HKUST Chinachem PrimeMovership Scholarship and RoboGames 2024
The Group established the Chinachem PrimeMovership Scholarship for students of the Division of Integrative Systems and Design, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (“HKUST”), with an aim to nurture a new generation of entrepreneurial and innovative technology leaders capable of solving real-world challenges.
In FY2023/24, the scholarship was awarded to 20 students, following a rigorous selection process which assessed student projects’ social impact, degree of community engagement, and multi-disciplinarity.
In April 2024, we supported 15 HKUST students’ participation in RoboGames, one of the world’s largest robot competitions, in California, United States. The team won a total 15 medals from 11 events ranging from auto humanoid, art bots to sumo, in addition to developing their technical expertise, problem-solving abilities, networking and leadership skills.
Space Transformation for Youth
School Campus Revitalisation
We partnered with Habitat for Humanity Hong Kong on the Project School Works programme, sponsoring school campus revitalisation projects to enhance the learning environments of 1,400 students at two local schools.
Together with CCG Hearts volunteers, students from participating schools helped transform their campuses by painting vibrant murals on walls and playgrounds, creating more engaging and inspiring spaces for learning and growth.
Launch of Nina Communal by Nina Hospitality
We have introduced Nina Communal, a versatile space located in Nina Hotel Tsuen Wan West and Nina Hotel Kowloon East. Designed as a vibrant mixed-use facility, it offers a dynamic environment for dining, co-working, recreation, and socialising, creating opportunities for young people, especially those living in Nina Hotel Tsuen Wan West under the youth hostel programme, to connect, collaborate, and thrive. By fostering meaningful interactions and providing an inspiring space, Nina Communal is not just a venue but a hub for youth empowerment and community engagement, supporting their development and ambitions.
