"Gu Dong Yue Xing" Bongo Drum Percussion Troupe – Beating the Rhythm of a Brighter Future

Gu Dong Yue Xing" Bongo Drum Percussion Troupe is comprised of individuals with intellectual disabilities from the HCPAP. Despite the physical strain from sore hands and the emotional challenges from sensitivity to noises, the troupe members developed into confident and charismatic performers thanks to the support of their professional teachers. They not only overcame social anxieties,and also shattered negative stereotypes about intellectual disabilities to foster a more progressive and inclusive society.

"Their performance was truly inspiring, a powerful display of dedication and resilience that deeply moved me," shared an Alpha employee who attended the show. Another volunteer reflected, "These events are incredibly meaningful as they offer us a chance to contribute to the community and cherish what we have." A fellow volunteer added, "This experience provided a profound insight into the essence of life and reinforced the importance of recognizing our potential".

"Giving back to society" lies at the heart of the Alpha Foundation’s mission. This event brought together over 80 Alpha volunteers and 10 performers with intellectual disabilities from "Gu Dong Yue Xing". Through their inspiring performances, the Foundation aims to share the love and hope that life offers, encouraging everyone to embrace individuals with disabilities and celebrate their unique skills. In doing so, they can discover their self-worth, live a fulfilling life, and build a society with an emphasis on the common good.
