Description
Background This Fund, founded by the late Mr. LI Po-chun, was established under the provisions of the Li Po Chun Charitable Trust Fund Ordinance (Cap. 1110). The Secretary for Home Affairs is the Chairman of the statutory committee which administers the Fund. Fund Objectives Approximately one half of the income of the Fund is used for scholarships, including overseas postgraduate scholarships, awards to students attending local tertiary institutions, the United World Colleges and Secondary 4 or above at one of four Anglo-Chinese secondary schools (namely, King's College, Queen's College, Queen Elizabeth School and Belilios Public School). The balance of the income is paid to the Director for Social Welfare for the relief of distress cases in which no adequate assistance is available from other sources. Scholarship Applications Applications for overseas postgraduate scholarships are invited through the Press in December every year. Application forms are available from the Li Po Chun Charitable Trust Fund Secretariat, Room 34/F, Wu Chung House, 213 Queen's Road East, Wan Chai, Hong Kong (tel no. 3718 6801).
