About the organisation
The Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui Welfare Council (the Welfare Council) walks in the footsteps of the Son of Peace, working hand in hand with churches and schools while actively engaging with all sectors of society. We walk alongside the disadvantaged, providing services and assistance to those in need, demonstrating Christ's love, and collaborating to build a loving society. Established in 1966, the Welfare Council has provided a wide range of social services, from caring for infants and toddlers to supporting the elderly, from promoting physical and mental health to offering rehabilitation care, from community support to residential care, from life education to end-of-life care, from social work intervention to interdisciplinary team collaboration. Additionally, we provide food assistance, community living room, and transitional housing to grassroots families. The Welfare Council currently operates over 200 service units and member agencies across Hong Kong, Macau, and Guangzhou, creating a comprehensive and close-knit service network. We offer personalised services and holistic care to those in need, helping them to “transform life, live in abundance”.
Mission statement
The Welfare Council follows the footsteps of Christ, discerns the needs of society, puts benevolence and justice into practice, and provides pertinent services, so that life, while being transformed, may be lived in a manner appropriate to human dignity and values.
