Care for the Underprivileged

The Group is committed to good corporate citizenship, actively listening to and addressing the needs of society to build a harmonious and inclusive community.

 

Addressing Grassroots Housing Needs

To help alleviate the housing shortage and improve living conditions for low income families, the Group supports the Government’s housing policy by providing land to the Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui Welfare Council to develop and operate the 1800-unit United Court, a transitional housing project completed in 2022. The Group has also lent a site on Yau Pok Road in Yuen Long to the Government, free of charge, for the development of 2,150 Light Public Housing units. The first residents moved in in the first quarter of 2025. Furthermore, the Group has donated a site to Sheng Kung Hui Welfare Council for a cross-generation integrated social service facility supporting the underprivileged.


Support for the Community Living Room Programme

The Group supports the government’s Pilot Programme on Community Living Rooms by providing a rent-free venue for the operation of the Ko Shan Road Community Living Room. This Living Room serves as a space that offers diversified facilities and services for parents and children living in subdivided units, helping to improve their quality of life and well-being.


Volunteer Efforts to Support the Community

Believing in the power of community engagement, the Group actively promotes volunteering as a means of bringing people together to support those in need. The SHKP Volunteer Team, created in 2003, has attracted over 3,200 staff members who dedicate approximately 75,000 hours annually to serving the community. Through long-term collaborations with local social service organizations, the team delivers vital physical and emotional support. SHKP volunteers also leverage their professional expertise to provide home inspections and perform minor renovations for underprivileged families and elderly residents affected by redevelopment projects, fostering a more positive and caring environment for all.

Additionally, SHKP extends care to grassroots communities through the Building Homes with Heart Caring Initiative, organizing festive events and distributing “gift bags” to express concern for those in need. The Group also provides emergency assistance to individuals or families facing significant financial hardship due to accidents or natural disasters.


Two Decades of Caring Company Recognition

Over the years, SHKP has supported and promoted various charitable initiatives. In recognition of these contributions, the Hong Kong Council of Social Service has presented The Group with the 20 Years Plus Caring Company Logo.
