About Campaign

ends 28 Feb 2017, 11:59 PM

In 2007, SPD started its Charity Hongbao fundraising initiative. The annual project is designed to complement the efforts of schools in building the character of our children through promoting the values of compassion and
giving. It is a simple platform for students to change their perspective of people with disabilities and help build an inclusive society where everyone is a part of it, not apart from it. Students are encouraged to share their hongbao money and also touch, move and inspire their family and friends they meet during the festivities to contribute as well, thus bringing to every person the opportunity to make life better for someone with disabilities.

For greater outreach and awareness, we have brought this meaningful campaign online so that more people could offer their generous giving and support for people with disabilities.

May we take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Lunar New Year and may all your wishes come true!
