Canadian International School of Hong Kong Limited

Education

CDNIS is a school united by the joy of learning, excellence in achievement and development of character. We will inspire academic and personal growth in our students by encouraging inquiry, stimulating creativity and innovation, embracing cross-cultural and global perspectives, and fostering meaningful participation and service. Vision: To inspire excellence, cultivate character, and empower engagement locally and globally.

We believe that with the right education and support, one child has the potential to lift an entire family out of poverty and that a generation of educated children has the power to change a whole society. Through intensive, long-term investments in children, CCF is helping students build the skills, confidence and integrity they need to become the progressive spokespeople and leaders of change in their communities. Since 2004, we’ve been working with some of the most impoverished communities in Cambodia, centred around the former garbage dump at Steung Meanchey. Back then, our world revolved around the health and wellbeing of 45 children living on the garbage dump. Today there are around 2,000 students working towards a better future for themselves and their families through CCF’s award winning education program. The garbage dump was closed in 2009. However the need for CCF’s services continues as Steung Meanchey remains an entry-point into Phnom Penh for destitute families with no option but to try and make a living through scavenging or begging on the city streets. Through a range of programs that focus on 6 core areas – Education, Leadership, Community Outreach, Healthcare, Childcare and Vocational Training – we take a holistic, on-the-ground approach to developing integrated solutions to the complex issues of poverty.

Brighton College Hong Kong Charitable Foundation Limited

We create programs and apps for struggling teens to connect with support and to help schools to reach out to vulnerable students. Our flagship program is the Know My Students online mental health screening solution. We've adapted clinical-grade psychological tools as a friendly interactive story and applied machine learning analysis to enhance mental health risk prediction. Our tool can be deployed to hundreds of students simultaneously, and schools get a detailed profile for the at-risk students so they can provide the most appropriate care. Why do students like sharing their feelings through the Know My Students tool? They tell us it is because unlike any other survey or questionnaire about mental health, the way we approach the topic and ask the questions shows care, understanding, and that we've been through these challenges as well. Read more about Know My Students below, or visit the Know My Students website here: www.knowmystudents.com to sign up and we'll be happy to share how we can help your school and your students!
