SHKP-Kwoks' Foundation meets with a delegation from Nanjing University 新鴻基地產郭氏基金與南京大學代表團交流 SHKP-Kwoks' Foundation launches scholarship programme to support PolyU students 新鴻基地產郭氏基金設獎學金支持理大學生 The Group is committed to supporting education in the country. SHKP-Kwoks' Foundation established the Nanjing University Scholarship Programme since 2006 to support outstanding students from financially disadvantaged families to complete their studies. It has benefitted about 3,000 students through donations of a total of some HK$16 million. The scholarship recipients have achieved outstanding results, becoming the new generation of talent supporting the country's future development. 80% of the beneficiaries have continued their studies in local or overseas universities or research institutes, and 20% are working in the government or large corporations. A delegation from Nanjing University recently visited the Group to explore ways further strengthen concerted efforts to nurture talent. The Hong Kong SAR government has launched a number of initiatives to attract talent, and Nanjing University is one of the eligible universities under the Top Talent Pass Scheme. The Group hopes that the scheme can help attract high-calibre university graduates to pursue careers in Hong Kong. 集團向來支持國家的教育事業，而新鴻基地產郭氏基金自 2006 年設立「南京 大學獎助學金」，以支持該校成績優秀但家庭經濟困難的學生完成學業，受 惠學生近 3,000 人次，總捐助金額近 1,600 萬港元。 受資助畢業生的成績出眾，八成在海內外大學或研究院繼續深造，兩成在政 府或大型企業工作，成為國家發展所需、德才兼備的新世代人才。早前南京 To help the construction industry nurture talent, the SHKP-Kwoks' Foundation and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) launched the Building Homes with Heart Scholarship Programme to support exceptional PolyU students, focusing particularly on those facing financial challenges who are studying construction, real estate or engineering-related disciplines. Ten outstanding PolyU students received the scholarships in the recent inaugural award ceremony of the scholarship programme. The 10 recipients are undergraduate and postgraduate students in the Department of Building Environment and Energy Engineering, the Department of Building and Real Estate, and the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering. Each student was awarded a scholarship of up to HK$40,000. The awarded students said the scholarships alleviated their financial burden and served as a source of encouragement. At the award ceremony, Director of the SHKP-Kwoks' Foundation Thomas Kwok said he hoped the scholarships would become a driving force for the students to achieve greater success in their studies and careers, thereby allowing them to contribute to the future development of the country and Hong Kong. 為支持建築界培訓人才，新鴻基地產郭氏基金與香港理工大學成立「以心建家 獎學金計劃」，資助在理大修讀建築、房地產或工程相關學科而有經濟困難的 優秀學生完成學業。早前 10 名香港理工大學學生，便在首屆獎學金頒獎典禮 上接受嘉許。 10 名學生分別來自建築環境及能源工程學系、建築及房地產學系，以及土木 及環境工程學系的本科生和碩士生，每人最高獲港幣四萬元獎學金。得獎學 Tan Tieniu (centre), Secretary of the CPC Nanjing University Committee, leads a delegation from the university to meet with Group Chairman and Managing Director Raymond Kwok (right) and SHKP-Kwoks' Foundation Executive Director Amy Kwok (left) 南京大學黨委書記譚鐵牛（中）早前率領大學代表團，與集團主 席兼董事總經理郭炳聯（右）及新鴻基地產郭氏基金執行董事郭 婉儀（左）會面 The SHKP-Kwoks' Foundation x PolyU Building Homes with Heart Scholarship Programme recently held the inaugural award ceremony.
