Save the Children Hong Kong has a proud 100-year heritage as part of the Save the Children global movement, dedicated to empowering children to transform their futures. “The harsh realities many children face in Hong Kong – from crippling poverty to the mental health crisis – are heartbreaking. Around the world, we also see natural disasters and conflicts impacting millions of children worldwide,” said Carol Szeto, CEO of Save the Children Hong Kong. “But we refuse to let these challenges define their destinies. Our mission is to uplift and empower every child, reinforcing the transformative impact that resonates through generations. When we unite as a community and go above and beyond, there is no obstacle too great for the resilience and potential of a child.”
