In 2015, Dragages Hong Kong leveraged our construction expertise to design and build a Sensory Gardenfor a school, which serves children with mild to moderate intellectual disabilities.  By stimulating all five senses in four garden zones, the Sensory Garden turns to be a valuable learning therapy facility. Families, students, together with our CSR volunteers witnessed the inauguration of the Sensory Garden in October 2017.

In July this year, Dragages Hong Kong received “Excellence in Construction Industry Volunteering Project – Gold Award” in the ¹Construction Industry Volunteer Award Scheme by ²Construction Industry Sports & Volunteering Programme (CISVP), in recognition of our long-term commitment to the community and our promotion of social integration.

“The community lacks leisure facilities for these children. I was almost in tears of joy when seeing some of them happily stepping on the turf for their first time.”

In recent years, all Hong Kong entities join hands to step up our CSR efforts. AsiaWorld-Expo, BYME, Dragages Hong Kong, and VSL-Intrafor work collaboratively to promote and participate in various CSR activities.
