The North West Caring Community Photo Book was a

new initiative to capture the caring moments in the

district through the eyes of the students. A photography

workshop was organised by North West CDC to teach

students basic photography skills to capture moments

during caring activities happening in the North West

District. Through this project, we hope to inspire youths

to contribute and care for the community. Here is a sneak

peek at some of the selected photographs captured by

the students. After all, Seeing is Believing.
