College Student Work Project (CSWP)
Inflation and the rise in cost of living has increased the need for
financial assistance by students in colleges and post-secondary
schools. The College Student Work Project by providing financial
assistance to needy college students, not only enables them to
meet a part of their financial needs, but also gets them involved
in providing services to other people. Each student receives
HK$200 a month. In turn he/she contributes eight hours of work a week
for other people. They are placed as tutors for school children
who are doing home work at church halls, librarians for children's
libraries, youth club leaders, clerical workers for welfare agencies,
etc. This is why we can say that every dollar used for this project
is used twice: for the students themselves and for the community.
Annually the CSWP supports 180 students. In addition to the sub-

the Sidney Gamble Memorial Fund. We would like to recognize
former CSWP students, Miss Chung Lick Lai, Mr. Fu Wing-Fuk and
Miss Cheung Chun-Ying, for their generous contribution of one
full CSWP scholarship and the Rotary Club of Kowloon North for
its contributicn of HK$4,380,00.
