ORGANIZATION
UWCGO Graduates Organization
UWC Graduates Organisation (Hong Kong) Limited (UWCGO) is a non profit Hong Kong limited company formed in 2003 as the principal UWC graduate organisation in Hong Kong. The board of directors of UWCGO comprises graduates from various UWCs. The chairperson of the UWCGO generally also sits on the board of LPC UWC and UWC HK Committee. Various activities and projects are headed up and run by alumni (together with some board members). Active members may also become board members. We are excited to inform you of our new efforts to build a stronger UWC Hong Kong network for all UWCers who have a nexus with Hong Kong.
We would like to introduce to you our board of directors (2009-2010):
Chair person: Constance Choy (AC)
Vice chair persons: Theresa Woo (AC), Karen Chan (LPC), Alan Chiu (LPC)
Other Board members: Francine Fu (AC), Ken Yeung (AW), Delpha Ho (AdC)
We have also reorganised our structure and created three action groups to focus on our core activities, in addition to administrative functions. These action group are:
- LPC support group (Theresa/Delpha) - This group aims to provide support to LPC and, through this process, to create a stronger identity with the alumni organisation to contribute to the UWC movement in Hong Kong focuses on creating stronger ties with LPC. Traditional activities, including careers day and graduation recruitment will come under this group.
- Selection advisory group (Karen/Francine) - The main function of this group is to add value to the current selection process by actively participating in the selection process of students from Hong Kong to attend United World Colleges, provide advice to improve the process and where appropriate, carry out or provide support to improve the process. Traditional activities including the challenge day and the overseas orientation will come under this group.
- Social networking group (Alan) - The aim of the social networking group is to provide happiness to our fellow alumni. Each year, the group organises all kinds of social activities including an annual dinner and causal drinks parties. Though these activities, we hope to maintain a stronger tie with our fellow graduates and to build an UWC centred social network.
