Remarks
- “The Foundry” is the flagship programme of Dream2Story designed to empower youths from under-resourced backgrounds in Hong Kong to (re-)gain a sense of self agency over their own post-school life. It is an experiential programme centred around a business plan challenge. Through a series of workshops, a company visit and mentorship sessions, students work in teams to bring their own dreams/passions into a business plan to be pitched against others in a competition setting. In addition to fundamental business concepts and entrepreneurial skills, students will have first hand experience in enhancing essential life skills such as communication, teamwork, critical thinking and problem-solving. We will support you with: (1)Briefings and session walkthroughs. (2)Professional mentor training to develop soft skills and enhance your ability to work effectively with youth, preparing you for student interactions. (3)Matching mentors with schools based on language preferences. (4)Ongoing support and guidance throughout the mentorship period to ensure a smooth experience. (5)Bi-weekly mentor social for mentors to connect and receive peer support. (6)Opportunities to learn from experience sharing by past and peer mentors.
