Arts for All
Girl Talk is a Hong Kong based student-led organisation dedicated to empowering girls through the principles of interaction, education, and service. Our core belief? That “girl talk” is more than trivial conversation. That moments of connection and understanding between girls build the strength needed to fight back. We champion this belief by teaching our core curriculum, complete with a women's history course, beginner guides to feminine hygiene, and 100 conversation cards for teens, in chapters across the world. Because it's never just girl talk: it's creating a network of educated, like-minded, and community-service-oriented advocates determined to change the world — one conversation at a time.

Harmony in Motion is a student-led initiative at Chinese International School that partners with the Love21 Foundation, a Hong Kong charity dedicated to empowering individuals with Down Syndrome and Autism. Through art, physical activity, and creative expression, we cultivate compassion, inclusion, and community awareness. Each year, Love21 members create beautiful artwork that is transformed into greeting cards for Christmas, Chinese New Year, and other occasions. These unique cards not only celebrate creativity but also help raise funds to sustain Love21’s meaningful programs.

The CIS Senegal Project partners with Les Cajoutiers de Warang, a unique school in Senegal that provides essential education, food, and socio-medical care to impoverished, deaf, and disabled children. The school's innovative structure includes specialized and inclusive sections, welcoming students from the poorest families across the country.
