About
- Description
- Chi Heng Foundation (CHF) was founded in 1998 and is a registered charity in Hong Kong. Chi Heng’s work in China focuses on providing comprehensive care and support to AIDS impacted children, with education being the main focus. Since 2002, CHF has been providing assistance to these children in Central China, so that they can continue their schooling. As of 2022, CHF has cumulatively sponsored over 32,000 AIDS impacted children, including primary, junior high, senior high and university students. CHF has set up local offices in Henan, Anhui and Yunnan Provinces to follow up on the needs of the children and provide timely assistance. Work of Chi Heng includes the followings: 1. Education Sponsorship Program – Education is the main focus of CHF’s AIDS Orphan Project. CHF offers three Education Programs: Basic Sponsorship, Merit-based Award, and Need-based Subsidy. Students receive funding from primary school through university. 2. Psycho-social Support Program – Including home visits, material assistance, summer camps, university campus tours, visits to businesses and art counseling. 3. Program for Children with HIV – A small number of CHF children are infected with HIV. They are most in need of health care, material assistance and various social programs. CHF assesses these needs on a case-by-case basis and provides required assistance. 4. Vocational Training & Career Development – CHF provides vocational training and placement referral to the sponsored students, so that they can find a job after graduation. 5. Community Self Help Support – CHF offers summer internship and long term job opportunities to AIDS-impacted university students in our programs with the hope of empowering them to become role models, like big brothers and big sisters, for younger AIDS-impacted children and encouraging them to give back to their communities. Many of the AIDS-impacted university graduates who were previously supported by CHF have become our volunteers and paid staff. They have formed a community self-help network and play an important role in the design and implementation of the AIDS Orphans Program.
