Founded in 2014 (and registered as a tax-exempt body under Section 88 in 2015), La Violet Charity Foundation is a charitable organization that plans and executes education, youth-related, and dream-chasing charity programs in Hong Kong. The team organizes an annual territory-wide event ‘Life beyond Routine’ Dream Project in the hope of rallying the community to promote the spirit of ‘Life beyond Routine’, encouraging Hong Kong people to find their interests, stick to their ideas, challenge themselves, and develop their creativity and personal potentials. Since its inception, ‘Life beyond Routine’ has accomplished nearly 100 dream projects and helped more than 5,000 dreamers to take the first step to pursue their dreams. The project has received positive feedback from different sectors of society, with 150+ media reports. Over 100 ‘Dream Sharing Sessions’ were also held in cooperation with more than 150 primary and secondary schools. The program has been divided into three streams for the youth, the family and the elderly under the themes of Dream Creation, Dream Extension and Dream Fulfillment respectively, of which the ‘Dream Creation Program’ was supported by the Hong Kong Jockey Club Charity Trust in 2019-2021.. In addition, the foundation also collaborates with various organizations and corporates to organize youth programs, including the ‘Plan your dream, reach your goal!’, ‘Dream Market’ and ‘Startup Your Idea’ with the Youth Development Council, theDesk, and UBS respectively.
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.
