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.
