About

Description
Social Career is a social enterprise based in Hong Kong that operates an online platform connecting volunteers with meaningful and impactful volunteering opportunities. The platform serves as a bridge between individuals who are interested in volunteering and organizations that need volunteers to support their social missions. Social Career aims to address the issue of volunteer mismatch, which occurs when volunteers are assigned to roles that do not match their skills, interests, or availability. By using an algorithm that matches volunteers with the most suitable roles, Social Career ensures that both volunteers and organizations benefit from the volunteer experience. In addition to providing a platform for volunteers and organizations to connect, Social Career also offers training and support to both volunteers and organizations to ensure a positive volunteering experience for all. They also offer corporate volunteering programs and support companies in developing their employee volunteering strategies.
For over 25 years FOCUS has been a trusted resource for Hong Kong parents, educators and medical professionals seeking to learn how to better support the academic and social lives of children with mainstream learning differences. FOCUS aims to improve educational and life outcomes of children with AD/HD and SpLD by expanding understanding and raising awareness of what it means to have a mind that learns differently Our mission is is to improve the education of mainstream students who are challenged by Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLD) and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) by providing accurate evidence-based information, practical strategies and support to parents and professionals in education and healthcare and by improving understanding of how learning differences impact youth both emotionally and academically.
