Experiential Learning At The Yee Hong Community Wellness Foundation, Vicky Qiao

SASAH 4th Year Capstone and Other Projects: Presentations

Vicky Qiao spent the summer of 2019 working at the Canadian not-for-profit Yee Hong Community Wellness Foundation, at the Yee Hong Centre for Geriatric Care. While there, Vicky coordinated fundraising events and event planning, and organized a mini-documentary series interviewing 8 individuals, including senior residents and staff, to unearth their immigration stories and experiences. Through this community engaged learning course, Vicky developed strong interpersonal, organizational, and problem-solving skills while engaging with a network of seniors to share their stories.
