OUR PROJECTS
Dews of Joy Volunteer
Dews of Joy’s volunteer initiatives bring care, companionship and practical support to different communities in need, including elderly residents, persons with disabilities and wider community groups. Through regular visits, hands-on service and participation in charitable events, our volunteers share warmth, build meaningful connections and help create a more caring and inclusive society.
ECO@Metta
Dews of Joy supports Metta’s ECO@Metta project, which helps young adults with special needs build employability, independence and confidence through hands-on vocational training. Trainees produce eco-friendly orange enzyme cleaners by upcycling discarded orange peels, with the products distributed to the community and sold online. The project has also expanded to include digital skills training, cyber safety, Tai Ji wellness sessions and Taiji Dragon Performance training, supporting trainees’ daily living skills, well-being and community participation.
