Several China and overseas Youth Exchange projects and Study Tours were launched since the mid-1980s to enhance the young people's understanding towards China and their international exposures.

Volunteer Program

Background

With a demand for all-rounded development of the youth, volunteer services are getting popular in Hong Kong to help establish the moral standard of teenagers. Many non-profit making organizations set up volunteer programs to provide them opportunities to broaden horizon. The Federation set up the Youth Volunteer Network (VNET) in 1998 [36] to meet the needs of the societal development. In 2005, the Network was sponsored by the Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust and was renamed as Hong Kong Jockey Club Community Project Grant- Youth Volunteer Network.[37]

Objective

The program is to encourage a social involvement of the youth. Through participating in the Network, they can contribute to society and to serve the district by giving hands to the needy. By joining different kinds of activities organized by the Federation of Hong Kong Youth Groups or other affiliated clubs,[38] the youth can develop a healthy social life and to balance their time between studies and pastime.

Target group

The program mainly recruits participants aged between 6 and 35.[39] Under a similar societal background between volunteers and the activities participants, a friendly relationship is formed by mutually sharing their own experience. Interest persons can register as volunteers from different units of the Federation such as the U21, a subsidiary of the Federation.

To enlarge the volunteer base, volunteers are also recruited from educational institutions, such as kindergartens, primary schools, secondary schools, tertiary educational institutions,[40] and the corporate.[41] This is a way to form a link between the Federation and numerous societal organizations.

Activities participated

In order to make the program interesting, a flexible system and network is built to provide all kinds of activities for the youth to choose from according to their interests, time and skills. Volunteers join on a continuing basis from small-scale to large scale activities with all ranges in the Network.[42] as volunteers to serve the guests and performers from different countries to share their interests.

Some international volunteers programs are also provided.

Reward system

A reward system was set up to recognize the effort made by the youth volunteer. The number of the service hours is the criterion to evaluate the performance of the volunteers. Volunteers contributing the most in term of time will be awarded in an annual event called the Annual Volunteer Awarding Ceremony (Traditional Chinese「活得出色」義工嘉許計劃).[43] Besides, they are nominated as the youth ambassadors[44] to share their experience in providing voluntary service in school assembly to promote the spirit and encourage a wider participation of students.

Development

The program accumulates more than 100,000 participants providing over 4,000,000 hours of service. On average, 500,000 hours are provided each year from volunteers. More than 300 organizations join the program as affiliated members.

The program develops certain sub-programs to specifically cater for different participants. Experts working in the program would organize training courses for volunteer teams of private companies, government departments and public corporations such as Motorola, Citic Ka Wah Bank, Hong Kong Cable Television Limited and Rating and Valuation Department to teach the volunteer management to improve the quality of the program and maintain teenagers the heart to serve the public.

Schools and organizations can join as the Friends of VNET (VNET之友)or Heart-to-Heart Project (Traditional Chinese:有心計劃) to show a commitment of organizing students or employees to serve the society not less than 2,000 hours or to donate money for carrying out community activities. During the outbreak of SARS in 2003, Tsunami in South Asia in 2004, Sichuan Earthquake in 2008, etc. are examples to gather volunteers in Hong Kong to give hands to those affected places.
