About the organisation
The Community Chest now supports over 150 member social welfare agencies to provide services in six areas including Children & Youth, Family & Child Welfare, Elderly, Medical & Health, Rehabilitation & Aftercare and Community Development & Others, and benefits over 2.1 million needy in Hong Kong every year. The Chest’s administrative costs come from a subsidized grant from The Hong Kong Jockey Club, in addition to income from investments. This allows the Chest to allocate 100% of funds raised to charitable use; this operations model makes the Chest unique among its peers, and helps fulfil its mission to act as trustee of the donors.
Mission
The Community Chest is an independent, non-profit making organisation neither funded, nor operated by the Government. It aims at raising funds through community-wide events and allocating all funds prudently to its member social welfare agencies to strengthen and maximize their services to the needy.
