Opportunity Details
Family Opportunity: Film a video greeting for an elderly living in care-home
Description: Throughout the crisis, HandsOn volunteers have played an important role in providing emotional support and social connection to Hong Kong's isolated elderly—whose well-being has been at great risk throughout the crisis. We now invite volunteers and families to film a caring video message that can be shown to the resident of an elderly care home. These videos deliver greetings and encouragement and will be given as a gift to elderly. In a one-to-four minute video, volunteers are invited to introduce themselves and share words of season's greetings, warmth and positivity, letting the recipient know that the community cares about them. Volunteer Roles:
- We will ask each volunteer to film a 1 to 4 minute video with a short self- introduction, greetings/blessings for the elderly and ending by sharing their blessings and good wishes. Volunteers are welcome to include a short story, poem, song or performance!
- Video format: mp4, m4v, mov, avi, wmv
- Please see an example and guidelines here: https://youtu.be/_GzqEJzDRKc
- HandOn team will send a link for participating volunteers to upload your videos. You will need to upload your videos to our drive by May 30th, 2021.
- The greeting videos will be sent to Pilot Scheme on Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui Welfare Council Multi-disciplinary Outreaching Support Teams for the Elderly(Kowloon East)
