Po Leung Kuk

HealthHuman Services

In the late 19th Century, abduction and trafficking of women and children were serious crimes in Hong Kong. On 8th November, 1878, a group of local Chinese presented a petition to the Governor, Sir John Pope Hennessy, K.C.M.G., to set up Po Leung Kuk to rescue the kidnapped victims. The “Society for the Protection of Women and Children” was approved by the Hong Kong Governor in May, 1880, but as the petition was submitted on 8th November, 1878, that date was adopted as our founding date. “Po Leung”, translating literally as protection of the young and the innocent, represents the core vision of our organisation. Formally established as the Society for the Protection of Women and Children in 1880, in our long history we have prevented and resolved kidnappings, protected destitute women and children, and assisted the Secretary for Chinese Affairs (under British Rule) as a mediator in complex family and marriage disputes. In line with the economic development of Hong Kong over the past century, the range of services and coverage we provided to the community constantly expanded as welfare needs evolved. Today, we are Hong Kong’s leading social service organisation and fundraiser.

Hong Kong Liver Transplant Patients' Association, The

HealthHuman Services

Since Queen Mary Hospital successfully performed Hong Kong's first liver transplant in October 1991, by mid-1998, the number of successful transplants has increased dramatically. Patients who have received transplants and those who are waiting for transplants urgently need an organization of their own. To support each other, The Hong Kong Liver Transplant Patients' Association was born. The Hong Kong Liver Transplant Patients' Association is a non-profit organization composed of a group of people who have received and are waiting for liver transplants, relatives and friends who have donated part of their living livers, and their family members. It was registered as a society in Hong Kong in May 1998 and was subsequently accepted as a charitable organization. The Hong Kong Inland Revenue Department granted tax exemption status for donations made to charitable organizations.

TEHK was set up to fill the activism gap, by 1) pushes Hong Kong’s law to comply with international standards of transgender rights and human rights; 2) run in a financially sustainable way; 3) commit to serving transpeople who are of other minority groups and who are the most marginalised. In contrast to other trans NGOs, we’re vocal about human rights, we adopt an intersectional approach, we’re knowledgeable in trans-related policies at international levels & have good relationships with key players in the CSO space in Asia and beyond. We also invest great efforts into ‘soft’ areas such as community building, peer support online & offline, public education etc as they are essentially complementary to ‘hard’ legal changes. In 2022, we launched a successful multi-media campaign ‘Transmen in Hong Kong’, which was well received locally and abroad and widely reported. We’ve been interviewed by Nikkei, Reuters, ABC (Australia), Washington Post, BBC, TIME Magazine, AP news, Pink News, Tatler, South China Morning Post, i-Cable, Ming Pao, Why Not (Chinese online media), the Young Post, Now Channel, Yahoo, the China File (in Italian), Hong Kong Free Press, HK01, AM730, Commercial Radio (prime time shows 光明頂, 在晴朗的一天出發), RTHK, the Collective etc. We were featured in documentaries and podcasts such as the BBC and TVB large productions. We’re a main force behind East Asia’s trans and LGBTI+ movement, in particular regarding legal gender recognition.
