"SmartConnect" Programme
The Welfare Council received funding from the SIE Fund and initiated the "SmartConnect" Programme in October 2021, lasting 27 months. The program aims to empower the elderly in learning and utilizing information technology, boosting their confidence. It also encourages intergenerational collaboration in using digital technology to solve everyday issues, fostering understanding and community participation, and promoting digital inclusion across generations. The program held a results-sharing session in December 2023. From the pre-and post-test data, it was evident that the program effectively enhanced the elderly's trust and confidence in digital technology, significantly improving their attitude and confidence in using information technology. Through intergenerational collaboration, the program effectively broke down preconceptions between both parties, greatly promoting intergenerational communication and integration.

Wings of Love|Promoting Public Education on Support for Parents of Lost Babies
Every year, about 9,000 pregnant women in Hong Kong lose their babies for various reasons. As these little lives are never born, the grief of their parents can easily be overlooked or misunderstood. In December 2020, with the support of the Zonta Club of Hong Kong East and the Chinachem Group, the Holy Carpenter Church District Elderly Community Centre launched a new one-year service project –"Wings of Love". The project provided funeral support and counselling services to parents who have lost their babies, organised small support groups for bereaved parents and promoted public education on the subject. The aim was to increase the community's empathy towards parents who have lost their babies and provide counselling and crisis support to those in need to help them overcome their grief.
