Why We Organize It?

In view of the growing community issues of elderly living alone – singleton elderly, JCI Island organized the program O! Love Tour to take an active role to increase the awareness and sensitivity on the aging and self-living problems.


Alignment of Interests between Your Organization and JCI Island

If you organization is committed to being a good corporate citizen in Hong Kong community and investing in initiatives that promote sustainability, health and wellness projects designed to enrich and make a difference in the lives of Hong Kong citizens, please join us by supporting the O!

Everyone has his/her own dreams, so does the singleton elderly. We believe that every individual’s dream should be respected, it doesn’t matter who they are and how old they are!
