Gai Wu
Charitable Foundation
Mission
In 2023, we embark on a new journey with the establishment of our IRD Section 88 approved charitable foundation, enabling us to extend our positive community influence. The mission of this foundation is to support the underprivileged persons at need and local community through sports and related activities.
Before establishing our own charity, we have already done numbers of social inclusion and diversity programs targeting underprivileged youths and families like Special Education Needs (SEN) students, low-income family and new immigrants by collaborating with an extensive network of NGOs and schools. Successful events like “Sports For All”, “Special Stadium” and “Jockey Club Rugby United Project” have set a record of 4000+ participants.
