Corporate Social Staff Development Program - Build the Farm; Build the TEAM!
In mid-November, ACT organized a “Build the Farm” event for Gap Inc. with the SE farm – Natural Network @ Sheung Shui.
The deep commitments and efforts from Gap staffs not only make the event in big success, but also the personal learning, team building and capacity building are produced.
Experiential learning is provided for corporate staffs:
- Taste the beauty of teamwork
- Understand how could do better to protect our environment in person
- Experience how big task could be accomplished in very limited resources
With the concept of sustainability, the event could benefit different parties and build the corresponding awareness.
- Build infrastructures of the farm to sustain its educational mission
- Extend the social exposure of low income women who live nearby
- Encourage connection among the women, community and the SE farm

The Power of Giving - Giving Strategically by Integrating your Passions with Society's Needs
The charitable impulse is at the heart of the human experience. While today’s problems seem more complex than ever, the opportunity exists for you to influence the world through private action. But to effect change through philanthropy requires a clear focus on what you want to accomplish and how.
Ms. Ellen Remmer Interim Managing Partner of The Philanthropic Initiative (USA), together with professionals from WiseGiving Advisors, will host a workshop to help you:
- Understand and be inspired by the potential of strategic philanthropy
- Codify your values into a vision and mission statement
- Think about whom in your family to involve in philanthropy and how
- Connect with and learn from a panel of strategic donors
- Consider strategies to maximize the impact of your philanthropy by moving beyond cheque-writing
