Education underpins the prospect of our city. However, the success of our students is still dependent on their socio-economic background.
According to the Census Statistics, there are 281K children living under the poverty line in Hong Kong. Only 1 out of 10 students under the poverty line are admitted to universities.
It takes a village to raise a child. To bridge the education inequality requires all sectors in society to work together. We nurture socially-minded, cross-section leaders through our Fellowship, partner with corporations to go into underserved schools and engage public awareness of education inequality and the need for paradigm shifts in our education.
Through our one-year TFHK Fellowship Program, we empower the most promising young leaders to change Hong Kong, starting from leading classrooms in underserved schools.
In our last 4 years, we enlisted 74 Fellows and impacted over 10,000 underserved students in 19 local schools in Hong Kong. We are funded by various charities and corporations and are thriving as one of the fastest growing social impact startups.
We envision a future where all children in Hong Kong have equal opportunity to access quality education and fulfill their potential.
