Charities

The Hong Kong Women's Choir is passionate about helping those less fortunate in our community and the aim for our concerts is to both raise funds for and increase awareness of their needs. This year the Choirs' efforts will benefit two good causes.

Bring Me a Book Hong Kong (http://www.bringmeabook.org.hk/) is the leading advocate for family literacy in Hong Kong today, facilitating access to quality children's books, nurturing their passion for reading, and empowering parents and educators to read aloud for future success in school and life.

The Sisters of the Good Shepherd (http://www.goodshepherd.org.hk/eng/history.php)  is an international group of women dedicated to promoting the welfare of women and girls, especially those at risk.  The aim is to donate funds raised for our concerts to go towards the purchase of instruments so that the facility residents have opportunities to heal and thrive through music.

Recent charities that have benefited from our efforts include Foodlink Foundation Limited, Sunshine Action, Silence, Harmony House, Children's Cancer Foundation, The Home of Loving Faithfulness, Against Child Abuse, and Suicide Prevention Services, St. James Settlement, among many others.
