Special Features:
The motto of our Hall is "Be Living in Humanity Hall, Believing in Humanity".

Background:
Being the tallest Hall and the first one to be christened, Jockey Club Humanity Hall is the second Hall housing the largest number of residents. In line with the name of the Hall, the Residence Master, Dr. Elaine Au together with all the Residence Tutors and residents submit to the ideology of "humanity" ¡V viewing people as essentially good and growth-oriented. The motto of our Hall is "Be Living in Humanity Hall, Believing in Humanity".

Hence, JCHH positions itself as a platform to facilitate students to learn and to build respectful interpersonal relationships through hostel life. Our Hall is always supportive to a variety of student activities, ranging from academic, cultural to community involvement. We believe that students as well as all young people will enhance their social skills and achieve mutual respect through group life and participation.
   
 
Highlights of our ongoing activities are:
City-Youth Empowerment Project:
It is a pioneer project initiated by JCHH for all residents from all Halls. The goal of the project is to create a process of empowerment, through which youthful CityU students serve as volunteers for different needy groups in the community. At the same time these community service projects serve the youth by providing platforms for their learning. At the end, our community will be injected with a caring force and our next generations will be equipped with the know-how to serve. The project now is serving different needy groups, such as Asperger children, children and family newly arrived to HK, children from single-parents families, disabled people etc.

Cross-Cultural Activities and Activities with Exchange Students:
JCHH strives to create a learning ambience with diverse cultural background. With the increase of student intake from both the Mainland and overseas, our Hall consists of a community of students with different backgrounds which has now become an excellent place to nurture cultural diversity. We organize various gatherings and trips for enhancing and encouraging cross-cultural exchanges and learning. We also organized learning tours to Sichuen and Guizhou in mainland China in 2005 and 2006, participated in by local students, Mainland students and expatriate exchange students. Both trips were well-received by participants as they did not only get to understand the local culture and history of the place, but also were exposed to delivering social service in a new culture.
