About
- Description
- The Children’s Heart Foundation (CHF), a registered charity, was founded by a group of concerned parents, medical staffs and volunteers in 1994. Working closely with the Department of Paediatric Cardiology of Queen Mary Hospital, we are the only NGO in Hong Kong which is devoted to supporting children with congenital heart disease and their families. The Foundation promotes mutual helps among parents and patients to overcome the challenges encountered when facing and caring for these special children. We offer tangible support for children in receiving medical treatment, acquisition of essential medical equipment, sponsoring research on diagnosis and treatment as well as providing overnight accommodation for parents of hospitalized children, etc. At the same time, we render psychological support by organizing developmental training for these special children providing counselling for parents in need.
- For over 25 years FOCUS has been a trusted resource for Hong Kong parents, educators and medical professionals seeking to learn how to better support the academic and social lives of children with mainstream learning differences. FOCUS aims to improve educational and life outcomes of children with AD/HD and SpLD by expanding understanding and raising awareness of what it means to have a mind that learns differently Our mission is is to improve the education of mainstream students who are challenged by Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLD) and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) by providing accurate evidence-based information, practical strategies and support to parents and professionals in education and healthcare and by improving understanding of how learning differences impact youth both emotionally and academically.
