From Fuel to Fire! The D. H. Chen Foundation has kicked off the Fellowship of Project Fire recently. Through reflective activities and engaging discussions, this capacity-building journey aims to foster a collaborative culture and promote collective growth with the sector, igniting further the Foundation’s core values of trust, respect and openness as we work towards building a compassionate society.
Evolved from the three-year Project Fuel program supporting small nonprofits through core operational funding and a co-learning Fellowship during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Foundation-initiated Project Fire welcomes three like-minded local philanthropic organizations – Chow Tai Fook Charity Foundation, The ReThink Foundation, and The Hong Kong Club Foundation – who share the same belief in the importance of supporting core operational funding and cultivating trust among nonprofits and philanthropic organizations to create sustainable impact in the social good sector.
Alongside 16 nonprofits invited by the total of four philanthropic partners, and four Project Fuel alumni organizations providing peer support, we are now a committed team of 24 in the inaugural cohort! Over the next eight months, we will pioneer a community of practice through the Fellowship, exploring a range of topics including self-management, self-care, staff wellness, and organizational management.
With Project Fire, the Foundation looks forward to “Fuelling More Collaborations Through Radiating Trust”. For more details of Project Fire, please click HERE.
