About
- Description
- The Good Citizen Award (GCA) scheme was introduced in 1973 to recognize individuals with contribution to the fighting of crime. Monetary awards funded by the Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce (HKGCC) are given to members of the public who are recommended by the Police and render positive assistance to the Police in prevention or detection of crime, or in the apprehension of criminals. In 1984, an additional award, the Good Citizen of the Year Award (GCYA), was established to laud the ‘Best Good Citizen’ of the year. The objectives of scheme are to encourage members of the public to report crime to the Police, to be prepared to act as witnesses and to help others when appropriate.
- "Yes I Can" Education Fund Limited is a charity dedicated to empowering underprivileged youth through transformative overseas experiences. The organisation provides scholarships for students to participate in a one-year high school exchange program in the United States. This opportunity is designed to broaden their horizons, inspire them to see a future full of possibilities, and help them break the cycle of intergenerational poverty. The fund operates on the belief that when young people can see a future, they will not give up on themselves.
