5th Wave Support – The Power of Pooling Resources

    Collaborative philanthropy creates a bigger impact. During the 5th wave of the COVID-19 outbreak, The D. H. Chen Foundation has joined hands with CTFE Social Solutions and Kerry Group to support Phase 2 and Phase 3 of the “Accommodation Subsidy Program for Care Home Frontliners”, launched by St. James’ Settlement Hong Kong and the Hong Kong Council of Social Service (HKCSS). 
      
    The first phase of the Program, offering up to HK$15,000 accommodation subsidy for each eligible frontline staff working at eldercare homes which are members of the HKCSS, is supported by the DHCF. With aggregated giving for Phase 2 and Phase 3, the Program is now scaled up to support frontliners working at private care homes.
      
    The social needs during the 5th wave are huge and with the power of pooling resources from our aligned network, we believe our community can be strengthened to combat challenges, however big or small.
