Special Services

Our special services and trust funds meet the changing needs of the community. These include services namely Financial Education Services to education institutions and public, an Employee Assistance Programme for corporations, and tailor-made professional fee-charging counselling to individuals and families to overcome and manage personal issues and difficulties affecting the family and workplace. Our volunteer service also facilitates personal growth, self-actualisation and contribution to the community.

Financial Education Centre is designed to promote financial literacy of children, youth and parents through experiential activities, edutainment programmes and social media platforms. The Centre also offers Financial Social Work Certification Training to equip social workers with the competence in intervening in finance related matters.

Education and Support Project for Multi-generational Families aims to support multi-generational families to build up positive and harmonious in-law relationship as well as to raise community concern to the needs of the multi-generational families.

Education and Support Project for Multi-generational Families

Service Introduction

Researches reviewed that dissatisfactory in-law relationship might be significant obstacles to the building of harmonious family relationship. The birth of the grandchildren will bring new challenges to the family system and as a result, family members may feel stressful and even their mental health may be affected. In view of this, with the sponsorship from the Lee Kum Kee Family Foundation, the "Education and Support Project for Multi-generational Families" has been launched in October 2015 which aims to support multi-generational families to build up positive and harmonious in-law relationship as well as to raise community concern to the needs of the multi-generational families.
