Citi-HKCSS Community Intern Program (CIP) aims at inspiring local business school students to contribute their knowledge and expertise to non-profit organizations through internship. The ultimate goal is to enhance their appreciation of Corporate Social Responsibility so as to equip these future business leaders with a broadened understanding of the community.
We are celebrating the 10th anniversary of the program this year. It is an important milestone and special moment to all the participating organizations, partners and interns. The 10th anniversary organizing committee, formed by the alumni, is planning a series of celebration campaigns. Your participation is important to the success of the program.
