Hong Yip’s Face Masks Donation to the Needy to Fight COVID-19 Together

In view of the fact that the current COVID-19 pandemic is still not yet under control and the fourth wave of the epidemic may emerge at any time, Hong Yip Service Company Limited (“Hong Yip”) joined hands with St. Jame’s Settlement to organise a face mask donation activity in August and September 2020 for Hong Yip’s staff and customers under Hong Yip’s managed properties to donate their masks for the underprivileged, elderly who are in need and frontline staff in care centres.

The response of our staff and customers was overwhelming. Over 70 estates, buildings and shopping arcades participated in the event. More than 35,000 pieces of masks together with other daily necessities were collected within one month’s time for St. Jame’s Settlement and 8,600 pieces of masks will be donated to Hong Kong Federation of Women’s Centres.

A donation ceremony and certificate presentation was held on 9 October between Hong Yip and St. Jame’s Settlement at St. Jame’s Settlement Community Centre in Wan Chai, expressing the appreciation for Hong Yip’s enthusiastic donation for those in need and pledge to fight the epidemic together.
