21.7.2018 Donor gathering @ CancerLink Jockey Club Support Centre, Kwai Chung

Our donor gathering was held at our CancerLink Centre in Kwai Chung where we ran our handmade soap and insect repellent workshop. The workshop tutor, Jenny, taught each participant how to make handmade charcoal soap and insect repellent, step by step using natural ingredients. It was a great challenge for our donors, but really nothing could bring them down. Despite everyone having some difficulty at times, at the end everyone came away with a product they felt really satisfied with.

In our ‘sharing section’, cancer survivors Tse-Leung and Chek-Lan discussed the long journey they have overcome with the donors. It was a tough time of Chek-Lan’s life and she was very emotional when talking about her journey. Her strongest support during this time was Cancer Fund giving her a lot of encouragement and help. Tse-Leung was very active in joining Cancer Fund’s free classes and, after completing all of his treatment, he is now helping other patients to fight cancer. He was also very grateful to every donor for helping them both along the way. 

Everyone was charged with positive energy, and the gathering ended in a happy, warm atmosphere with all its participants getting so much from this meeting.
