A group of young people in lack of family support started to live independently and found their “good home” in ECH Youth Home. In addition to providing transitional accommodation support, ECH Youth Home also supports them in life planning and career counseling through the “2nd Chance in Life – Transitional Sponsorship Program”. This can help the youth find their own direction. Just like seeing silver lining, the former residents can seek for their future.

Former residents’ sharing

Believe there is a way out, by Eric

I had just finished my DSE exam and felt lost. I found my direction here! This home built me up and made me a more confident and self-managed person.

A reliable “family”, by Hilary

Since I moved into this youth home, I have a “home” with many “family members” to share my worries and difficulties. In addition, some subsidy fund allowed me to start saving and reduced my worries about the future.

Becoming a better me step by step, by June

I am more cheerful and confident now than when I first moved in. Thanks to the “2nd Chance in Life – Transitional Sponsorship Program”. I learned to plan for my future. When I wanted to give up, I was fortunate to have the support and encouragement from my mentors and young residents here, so I didn’t get lost. I am very grateful to live in ECH Youth Home.

Affordable Accommodation as “Start-Up” Assistance, by Ho-man

As a fresh graduate student, I was very financially strapped. I had to bear all my own expenses for clothing, food, housing, transportation, and tuition fees, which give me a lot of pressure. Living in ECH Youth Home has solved the dilemma of having to pay expensive rent (HK$7,000 can only live in a subdivided room). I only needed around HK$2,000 a month to pay for dormitory expenses include operating expenses and sundries. What was even more touching was that there were also various allowances, like accommodation allowances, student allowances and other assistance, which perfectly matched my needs.

Career Development, Counseling and Advance Training, by Laura

The Youth Home provided me a convenient and stable environment, which allowed me to think about the future. I did not have to live in a place under “complicated circumstance”. The service provides life coaching and career planning, which would be helpful for young people to go upstream and pushed me to pursue my dream bravely and become a registered nurse.

Find the way, by Kyle

ECH mentor introduced a job to me, and gave me advice about my future direction at work. By staying with young people, I learned how to get along with others, and also how to save money.

This is a right decision, by Gary

This is a place full of love. My mentor taught me how to find a job by learning practical skill of interview. He also helped me to develop the habit of saving through a savings plan. He taught me how to understand myself and how to deal with stress. He also taught me how to make desserts and makeup myself. There, I also got to know Victor – my good brother, friend and roommate.

Find the warmth and love of home, by Lynn

The biggest gain for me, from living here (the Youth Home) for two years, is to learn how to get along with a group of young peoples similar to me. With a total of 12 girls living in 6 rooms, we would cook together and encourage each other in daily life. During this process, I felt a “kind of family” which my original family could not give me.

Go through the difficult stage, by Icy

This place really feels like home to me! At that hard time, I felt confused and panicked because I had no support from my family, and I was in a negative mood. ECH helped me transition through a very difficult stage in my life. I was provided a lot of support and learned how to cook and take care of myself. Even I left for around 10 years, my mentor continues to help me, encouraging me to participate in different interest classes, accompanying, listening and coaching my soul. So I changed to serve in an NGO finally, hoping to use my own experience to help children in needs, and determined to influence lives with my life.
