Strengths Allied (37x4)

Fecha de emisión: Oct 09, 2018

Five young people – Himphen, Nelson, Amy, Catherine and Camelie – bring their strengths together in running the crowdsourcing platform “Collaction”, where you can see other people’s dreams and even help the dreams come true. In order to attract more attention to Collaction, the quintet launched projects such as “Timber” and “Snappy” with the aim of encouraging people to partake in community affairs in their own ways. With their professional knowledge, YC and Antony helped a group of secondary school students realise the dream of developing a mobile application “Whereabouts of Minibuses” that brings convenience to busy passengers. Via Collaction, the “Water for Free” project was able to raise funds for updating its webpage and mobile application, and the “Food Sharing Hong Kong” project also managed to introduce the idea of food sharing to the city. Even though not all projects can run smoothly without obstacles, the five members of Collaction are determined to persevere. They firmly believe that everyone can play their own part, engage in more social affairs, and contribute to a better community.
