The Initiative
The Wah Yan Global Leadership Program initiative is designed to benefit young university students interested in responsible entrepreneurship and leaders of human excellence. This initiative aims to develop the next generation of socially responsible entrepreneurs and leaders of competence, conscience, compassion and commitment. It will do this by building a learning community where young promising university students and mentors from Wah Yan can engage in meaningful service opportunities together. This will be supported by our Wah Yan international Alumni Network. While participating in the program, these university students will have an obligation to assist our work in serving others through service learning opportunities organized under the program. We will support their journey to human excellence through this innovative entrepreneurship program.
A number of WYKAAO members are actively volunteering at charity organizations such as Mon Sheong Foundation which primarily serves the senior population in the community especially for their well-being and health care needs.

聖誕節臨近,周守仁主教邀請我們在這普天同慶的日子,儘管面對疫情和備受疲弱經濟的困擾,仍能互相關懷、支持和付出,而不是自利為先,去慶祝聖誕節的和平、希望和愛。說到底,最好的聖誕禮物,是付出自己,去成就別人。愛的禮物就是生命的禮物!讓我們找到最好的方法,把這份禮物送給別人。周主教祝願大家有一個窩心的聖誕,以及滿懷希望的2023年.
