Uncle Long Leg Letter Box
Introduction
The "Uncle Long Leg Letter Box" service has consistently gained recognition and support from schools and community stakeholders. Since 2015, it has received partial funding from the Hong Kong Community Chest to advance the letter counseling programme associated with the mailbox. The programme also conducts regular volunteer training, community events, and talks for students and parents, fostering a better understanding of the inner feelings and developmental needs of the younger generation. Over the years, nearly 30,000 individuals have participated in the program, resulting in over 80,000 letters received, accompanying many young people on their journey of growth.
