Care for the Underprivileged  Embracing Social Inclusion Mr Yuen Hok Sum Principal, Hong Chi Morninghope School, Tuen Mun Our school wants to help students equip themselves to enter the job market after graduating. Thank KMB for providing a comfortable and authentic environment for their social inclusion training. Complementing the teacher- student interaction they receive at school, working at Café 1933 students allows them to engage with a range of customers, which boosts their confidence and motivation to get a job. KMB gives us the flexibility to run Café 1933 as a relatively simple operation, which reduces the administrative workload of teachers and allows students to enjoy the moment. I must give a special mention to KMB staff, who provide great support and encouragement for our students. We hope more companies will follow KMB by providing placements for students. “ “
