Racing for Charity
Since
1915 The Hong Kong Jockey Club has contributed substantial funds
towards charitable and worthy causes that have benefitted Hong Kong.
"Racing for Charity" is the Club's historic commitment
to Hong Kong and the cornerstone of our unique business model.
Each year surplus earnings from the racing season are allocated
to The Hong Kong Jockey
Club Charities Trust which serves as the administrator for the
Club's charitable donations.
The range and diversity of recipient projects and programmes reflect
the Club's objective which is to add value where it will provide
the greatest benefit to society as a whole. The Club serves four
principal areas of civic and social need: sports, recreation and
culture, education and training, community services and medical
and health.
Working with Government and non-profit agencies, the Club aims
to bring a better quality of life to the people of Hong Kong and
immediate relief to those most in need.
In addition to this ongoing work, the Club also proactively identifies
and generates projects that anticipate future community and social
needs.
