New World Development's Cookie Making Class Encourages Colleagues to Show Love and Care to Their Mothers
Besides creating the perfect home for Hong Kong people, New World Development Company Limited ("the Group"; Stock Code: 17.HK) also cares about staff and their relationship with their family. To celebrate the upcoming Mother's Day, the Group held a cookie making class for staff to bake cookies to show love and care for their beloved mothers.
The Group not only cares about its staff and their family, it also aims at extending its care to those in need. Besides learning from instructors at the cookie making class, staff also baked cookies with members of New Life Psychiatric Rehabilitation Association, which helped them to grasp the real meaning of harmony, acceptance and appreciation. Cookies made at the cooking class are given to staff who are mothers as a gesture of appreciation for their dedication to both the company and their family. The giving of cookies also encourages staff to express their love for their mothers and enhance harmony of their family.
