We have the green light from the Social Welfare Department to operate our flag day fund-raising activities in the New Territories Region on 24 July 2021. Besides raising funds to support child protection services, the Flag Day helps greatly in delivering child protection messages to the community. It was hot in July. We thanked over 6,000 volunteers including parents and children who helped distribute and collect donations on the streets.

 

This year, cartoon characters Squly & Friends joined hands with us by sponsoring the flag design to raise public awareness of our services in building up stable and healthy families for children and to raise fund for sustaining child abuse prevention services.

 

Besides, we heartily thank the following agencies (listed in no particular order) for their support in the many activities conducted on the flag day: DBS Bank, The Home Affairs Department, Caritas Hong Kong (CHK) – “Project Hyacinth” – Enrichment Service for Young Mothers, the HKCTU Yuen Long Training Centre, Tin Shui Wai Community Collaboration Platform, Fung Ying Seen Koon, Hong Kong Federation of Women's Centres, Evangelical Lutheran Church Social Service - ELCHK Sheen Hok Charitable Foundation Kwan Shon Hing Yu Chui Neighbourhood Elderly Centre, Help Community Service Centre of Asbury Methodist Social Service, Neighbourhood & Worker's Service Centre Kwai Fong Integrated Service Mutual Help Child Care Centre, St. Andrew's Parish, Direction Association for the Handicapped, House of Salvage, Community Development Enhance Fund Limited, Crossroads Foundation, CMedSoap, Lion Rock Medical Supplies Group Ltd, Social Career, Easy Volunteer, Agency for Volunteer Service and Sun Hung Kai Properties Limited.

 

We also expressed our sincere gratitude to Clic Ltd for the support behind the scene in filming promotional videos over the past years. Throughout the videos, our child protection messages were well promulgated among members of the community.

 

Thanks again for all the support from volunteers and different units! We look forward to seeing you in the next Flag Day!
