The Hong Kong Council of Social Service (HKCSS), in partnership with Hang Seng Bank, set up the Hang Seng Future Skills Fund (the Fund) in 2022. The Fund supported 8 non-subvented local charities to run community projects focusing on the future skills development in three main themes, i.e., Financial Literacy, Climate Change, and Digital Literacy / Inclusion, and other related soft skills in order to enhance beneficiaries’ individual ability to respond to the rapid changing environment. All the granted organisations have completed their 1-year projects with satisfaction.

The Fund has set up “Outstanding Project Award” to select two well-performed projects in terms of Project Management and Execution, Social Impact and Impact Sustainability, and Cost-effectiveness. The award prize of HK$50,000 is expected to continue to support the project beneficiaries improve their skills and knowledge, thereby enhancing their competitiveness and be prepared for the future.

“Outstanding Project Award” Awardees：

▲Enrich Personal Development – Equipping Migrant Domestic Workers With Financial Literacy
