Following an overwhelming response to our call for joining the “Let’s Sportsor!” program last year, the Hang Lung As One Volunteer Team were pleased to be bringing back the program this year in collaboration with the Hong Kong Federations of Youth Groups (“HKFYG”). With the cumulative number of exercise hours converted to sponsorship of free fitness courses for underprivileged children, colleagues were inspired to pledge to exercise more.

Over 80 colleagues took part in the program and accumulated close to 3,500 training hours in about two months’ time.  Our CEO Mr. Weber Lo also took the lead to support the program! With the concerted effort of our volunteers, over 100 children, some of whom have special educational needs (SEN), are able to enjoy complimentary sports training schemes such as roller-skating, football, and touch rugby.

“Thanks to Hang Lung’s tremendous support of the program, more underprivileged children are granted with the opportunities to participate in sporting activities. We hope the ‘Let’s Sportsor!’ program will serve as a channel to help SEN students improve their concentration and communication skills, as well as to increase their metabolism,” said Lily Tse, Unit in-charge of HKFYG Community Team Sports Office.
