There is no limit to what students can achieve! I am often taken by surprise whenever I talk to the young people. It is because of their unique ideas, different perspectives, new possibilities, and hope. Students all have different talents and potential. At times, however, unexpected difficulties and obstacles take their chances away.
Through the ‘Giving Wings to my Dream’ Summer Camp, HUMAN IN LOVE gave students had not had the opportunity to think hard about their future due to their surroundings the time to discover their talents and potential and the encouragement to challenge themselves. To this end, we collaborated with “Awesome School,” a group of experts in career development.

Through the Lifeline activities, participants were invited to follow the trails of their life so far, recall both happy and difficult memories, and shed light on their current status. Some students were moved to tears at the lifeline stories of other friends.

Meanwhile, the mentees and mentors of ‘Giving Wings to my Dream’ Summer Camp also enjoyed group activities, through which they could realize the value of “us” and the joy interpersonal relationship can bring to people. Spectrogram was a time to share each other’s stories in different situations, find the positive sides in their partners, and sharing the findings with the partners to boost confidence and trust in each other. We all sketched our lives and what we can achieve in the future. And we earned the courage and confidence to challenge ourselves to fulfill the goals. Our wings are gradually gaining energy to fly toward our dreams
