For2gram

Social Inclusion

For2gram teaches basic photography skills to young persons aged 16 to 20 who have ASD, specific learning difficulties (SpLD), and/or dysphonia. Additionally, it offers them preliminary career planning. The trainees will first provide ID photo  services for schools and residential care homes, thereby gaining a new understanding of the world and establishing relationships with people around them. Next, the trainees will provide photo album scanning services for the elderly living in residential care homes, enabling them to reminisce about their good old days at any time.

By training disadvantaged youths to offer photography and scanning services for the elderly, it helps young people understand and appreciate the efforts and contributions of the elderly, while also encouraging the elderly to be more accepting of the younger generation.
