Gallant Ho Service Learning Scheme – Family Values
Dear students and Colleagues,

Applications are invited from full-time students and staff of the University of Hong Kong (on an individual or a group basis) for funding from the captioned Scheme, which was set up by Mr. Gallant Ho in 2008 with the aims to:

(a) To develop students into future leaders with a strong commitment to family and traditional Chinese values through service learning;
(b) To enhance family relationship and harmony of the service recipients; and
(c) To strengthen HKU’s service to society and partnership with the community.

Student societies, individual students in group and staff can apply for local and overseas voluntary service, service learning projects, public education programmes; and innovative learning activities organised in or out of Hong Kong which meet the above objectives.

The maximum amount of grant to each project is HK$50,000. However, the Steering Committee may exercise discretion to approve grants up to HK$100,000 for projects with strong justifications.
