Raffle Ticket Sale for Queen Elizabeth Hospital (17 October 2004)

NWS Volunteer Alliance supported the territory-wide raffle ticket sale that raised funds for the patient resource centre of Queen Elizabeth Hospital. A number of volunteers assisted in the sale at Wong Tai Sin Centre and raised nearly HK$10,000 on that day.

To raise fund for its children and elderly welfare service, Po Leung Kuk organized mooncake charity sale in various shopping centres on weekends in September. NWS Volunteer Alliance supported the charitable event for the third consecutive years by sending volunteers to help the sale.

True Success Hong Kong Limited ("True Success"), a NWS Holdings' subsidiary which carries on food trading business, donated about 4000 packs of food including Chinese soup ingredients and Japanese appetizers. Through the non-profit American Baptist Mission, the food was distributed to 900 poor elderly people, 400 low income families, 160 children who lack family care, and female victims of family violence and their children.

In just three days, the Group collected over 300 pairs of eyeglasses in support of Crossroads International's donation programme for Kunming's people with poor eyesight.
