Have you ever given someone a gift that is exactly what she wants and needs? Picture the widen eyes, the smile that grows bigger and bigger, the grateful tears, the excitement.

Isn’t that just a great feeling?

...and you will give a gift that will make a big difference to a special group of kids this year - children with special education needs who are from underprivileged backgrounds.  

According to statistics published by the Education Bureau*, since 2011, the number of students with special education needs enrolled in public primary schools increased by 5,920 to 21,860 (a rise of 37%). We are seeing more such students at the HOPE worldwide Centre for Kids in Shek Kip Mei.

Special education needs children face developmental, emotional, social, and academic challenges. These challenges do not end when school ends for the day. Whereas middle and upper-middle class parents have the means to provide the help their children need during these after-school hours, low-income families do not.

With funds raised from the DYXnet x HOPE worldwide Great Santa Night Run 2017, the HOPE worldwide Centre for Kids will look to expand our reach and provide more comprehensive after-school services to this group of children and their families.

Make this Christmas the year where your gift truly matters to someone’s life.  Sign up TODAY!
