Sustainability Reports 2022/23
This year, we organized numerous activities to help people in need. In partnership with the Caritas Community Centre, Ngau Tau Kok, the SHKP Peer Support Programme provided underprivileged families with opportunities to enjoy time together on visits to museums and other places of interest during the summer holiday. In relieving pressure, and encouraging communication and companionship among families, the team hopes that children in particular can break through their limits, broaden their horizons, open their hearts, and unleash their talent with confidence through various activities. Our volunteer team also invited colleagues and their families to knit scarves and beanies for underprivileged families and the elderly. We distributed around 6,000 such items during visits in the reporting year. The team also served the elderly and those in need via the Redevelopment of Pak Tin Estate Neighbourhood Support Programme. Over the past three years, we have helped 600 elderly people to relocate: providing home inspections, basic renovations and other caring initiatives to relieve their concerns during relocation and the pandemic. The programme was completed in 2022, when the recipients settled into their new homes. SHKP Volunteer Team Aiming to create long-term value, the SHKP Volunteer Team has supported the local community since its foundation in 2003.

This focused on elderly senior and senior couples living in Hung Shui Kiu village and squatter areas. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, our volunteers distributed goodie bags and created traditional lanterns to bring joy to the community. Inspiring our staff to participate in philanthropic activities is another way that we contribute to the community. To encourage them, we provide training and insurance that covers volunteering activities.
