Description
Following the donation of HK$150,000 to the Future Stars – Upward Mobility Scholarship in 2016, AS Watson Group continued to support the Commission on Poverty’s “Future Star Programme”, by arranging career-focused activities for grassroots secondary school students to gain practical working experience.
Brands of the Group supported the programme by organising visits to PARKnSHOP’s Sheung Shui Fresh Food Distribution Centre and Fortress stores. Watsons Hong Kong and Watsons Athletic Club also supported the “Life Buddy Mentoring Scheme” by providing students with summer placements at Watsons stores, and event management experience in sports events.
