Supporting the Homeless in Hong Kong

  • 22/06/2017 - 31/08/2017

Support for Impact Hong Kong is participating in Help ImpactHK Make A Bigger Impact
and is fundraising for ImpactHK Limited

I am partnering with Impact HK to raise funds for a facility that will help homeless people in Hong Kong get on their feet.

My Story

YOU can help ImpactHK make a bigger impact in our community.

ImpactHK is a charity supporting the homeless throughout Hong Kong. Currently we are out serving the homeless twenty times per month during our Kindness Walks. During these walks we provide the homeless with kindness through food, drinks, clothing and bedding, toiletries and free laundry. As we increase the frequency of our walks, trust and connections are built and more and more often we are presented with individuals reaching out to us wanting to find a way off the streets. At ImpactHK, we believe we can give them that. Our job creation initiatives will surround our homeless friends with multiple connections, from having a safe and clean home to mentorships and sports leagues. Our friends will be surrounded with connections and support through counselling and friendship. In order to take this next step as a charity, it is imperative that we have a facility of our own. Having a facility will provide us with a safe space to further our connections with homeless individuals looking to get off the street. We will have a free clothing section where homeless individuals can select the clothing they want. We will be able to provide counselling and even give haircuts to the homeless. Having a facility will provide us with location for job training. We will start a painting company called The Second Coat Painting Co. In this centre our painters could learn how to paint and be ready for work. Having a facility will allow us to further combat food waste. We will be able to receive donations from charities supporting food waste and also work directly with companies and farms who have excess products which we could use to support the poor. 
We have found an ideal location in the heart of Sham Shui Po within walking distance to nearly 200 homeless people. We are seeking to raise $350,000 in order to pay for our first year's rent. This is a large number, but achievable if we all work together!  We calculated the fundraising goal of $350,000 based on a monthly rate of $28,000 per month plus government fees. ImpactHK has reached where we are today due to our large number of caring volunteers. Together we can do this and truly make a life changing difference!
Thanks for your support as always!

Please DONATE and help SHARE this with friends.
