Giving young people every opportunity to develop their full potential lies at the heart of many Club programmes.

In 2003, the Trust donated HK$2.99 million for the Hong Kong New Generation Cultural Association to organise the Hong Kong Youth Science and Technology Invention Contest and to send students to participate in overseas contests over a three-year period.

Trust funds built a "Model Primary School" in Tai Po for some 600 students to improve the quality of teachers and students. The school, now named the Hong Kong Institute of Education Jockey Club Primary School, has the mission of optimising each child's potential through the shared joy of teaching and learning. It opened in February 2004.

Twenty-one Hong Kong Jockey Club Scholars graduated in 2004, the third group to do so while the Alumni Association marked its second year. The Trust is proud of these talented young people and believes that its HK$102 million Scholarship Scheme will help nurture a group of bright and community-minded youths.
