    Gateway Apartments spreads love and care to the elderly ‘Knitting for the Elderly 2019’

    2019-12-18

    Gateway Apartments’ signature annual social initiative, “Knitting for the Elderly”, has been running for the past eight years during the Christmas period to show their care for senior citizens. Volunteers of Residents and Associate Members of the Gateway Apartments sent love and care to senior citizens, by giving out hand-made scarves and gift packs to the elderly during visit to The Salvation Army Wah Fu Centre for Senior Citizens.

    At the event day, Mr. Ronald Lodges, General Manager of Gateway Apartments, and volunteers celebrated the Christmas season with the elderly with interactive fun games that came with prizes for the winners. Gateway Apartments also distributed hand-knitted scarves and gift packs to each of the participants. Each hand-knitted scarf is unique and volunteers started knitting one month prior to the event. It was filled with love and care, and was much appreciated by the elderly.

    More than 100 scarves together with Christmas goodies were given out at the event.  Both the volunteers and the elderly enjoyed the gathering and are looking forward to next year’s gathering.
