SHKP Quarterly

Since 2002, the SHKP-Kwoks’ Foundation has been committed to nurturing talented young individuals in Hong Kong and on the mainland by offering financial assistance to promising students with limited means for undergraduate studies. For the first time, the Foundation set up a scholarship programme at Chongqing University to help disadvantaged students from the western region of the mainland pursue their studies. Starting from the 2018/19 academic year, selected recipients from underprivileged families will receive financial support to complete their four-year undergraduate studies. The hope is that they can focus more on their studies and even get the opportunity to go overseas for educational exchanges or to further their studies. 新地郭氏基金自 2002 年成立以來，秉承為香港及內地培育人才的理念，為優 秀的清貧學生提供經濟資助，讓他們有機會進入大學修讀本科課程。 基金首次在重慶大學設立獎助學金，協助西部地區貧困學生完成升學夢想。 項目已於 2018/19 學年展開，資助有家庭經濟困難的優秀學生修讀四年大學教 育，讓他們可以專心學業，甚至爭取出國交流、學習的機會。 Seniors earn a big applause for their lively and dynamic performance 一班長者在表演環節落力演出，贏得全場掌聲 SHKP-Kwoks' Foundation Executive Director Amy Kwok (front, right), Chongqing University Vice-President Wang Shilong (front, left) sign the scholarship agreement in the presence of Director of Educational, Scientific and Technological Affairs Department of the Hong Kong Liaison Office Chen Heng (back, fourth left) 新地郭氏基金執行董事郭婉儀（前右）、重慶大學副校長王時 龍（前左）簽署捐贈協議書，中聯辦教育科技部處長陳恆（後左 四）出席見證 Chinese New Year Poon Choi luncheons arranged for seniors for the ninth straight year 集團連續第九年為長者舉辦新春盆菜宴 SHKP-Kwoks' Foundation establishes scholarship at Chongqing University 新地郭氏基金設立重慶大學獎助學金 To celebrate the Chinese New Year, the Group organized two Chinese New Year Poon Choi Luncheons at Noah’s Ark under the Building Homes with Heart Caring Initiative, the ninth consecutive year that the Group has held this festive event.
