Bank of China (Hong Kong) — Donation Programmes

Since 2019, Bank of China (Hong Kong) (BOCHK) has been providing funding to Po Leung Kuk through the BOCHK Centenary Charity Programme” to support various services catering to the diverse needs of the community. These initiatives offer suitable solutions and support services to facilitate community development, with a particular focus on caring for vulnerable groups, supporting children and youth development, and enhancing elderly care.
 

In addition, BOCHK made a donation to support Po Leung Kuk to implement the “Y Plus+ Pilot Scheme on Mental Health Supporting Service for Schools”, which aims to support the mental health needs of secondary school students by providing them with in-school activities, and at the same time enhance their knowledge, analytical skills and attitudes towards mental issues. Over 80 workshops have been held, with the participation of BOCHK volunteers. The number of beneficiaries of the programme is expected to exceed 1,000.
 

On education, the “Po Leung Kuk Happy Growth Fund”, supported by BOCHK, enables students at affiliated schools to seek treatment from private psychiatrists while waitlisting for services at public hospitals, ensuring timely support for those in need. Teaching staff and other 
personnel from units under the Kuk have also received funding for professional development, as part of the efforts to improve the quality of education.
