Hair
\nRejuvenation is a social enterprise well-known for its hair treatment,
\nhair-dyeing, oil treatment, and ginger therapy in the way of traditional
\nChinese medicine. Amy, the founder of Hair Rejuvenation, was born with impaired
\nhearing. She then realized the difficulty of finding employment for people with
\nhearing loss, and thus determined to set up a social
\nenterprise to help the disadvantaged groups on employment and also offer training
\nto develop their work skills. In the meantime, Amy wishes to convey the message that people with
\nhearing loss can communicate as effectively as ordinary
\npeople without boundaries and that their ability is no
\ndifferent from the ordinary. Upon training, the employees of Hair Rejuvenation
\nare often praised by customers for their attentive service, in which it
\nis the perfect proof that people with hearing loss can also work as diligently.<\/p>\n
The Third Day<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n
The Third Day
\nis a social enterprise that uses
\n“Do Nothing Farming” to maintain the ecological balance of the
\nfarmland and sustain the biodiversity of the area. The founders Alfred and
\nVasco believe that the best tea needs to be grown in an all-natural way, where
\nthe land is preserved as its original and natural state so that the tea can
\nalways grow in the purest environment and retain the pure natural taste for a
\nlong time. The Third Day also introduces the benefits of natural planting to ethnic
\nminority farmers in the northern Thailand. By doing so, they are able to share the
\ntechnology with them so the farmers can further improve their lives. In
\naddition, they also cooperates with other local social
\nenterprises to launch different products, which can not only help the
\nrestoration of land in northern Thailand but also take actions in sending blessings to those in need in Hong Kong.<\/p>\n
