I was thrilled when the children of a famous and respected Hong Kong actress, Nancy Sit, began to fly a banner for orphans and abandoned children after a school trip to Xining Children's Home in 2004. Moved by what they had seen, the visiting students realized there was a vast gulf between their privileged lives and that of orphans and abandoned children.

Of the 18 districts in Hong Kong, the ancient city of Kwun Tong has the third highest population. It is fast growing into a thriving CBD, but according to Phoebe, a young woman who was part of the Rotary Club's Child Development Programme, there seems to be no room for the old in the new Kwun Tong.
Members of Rotary have invested a considerable amount of money in the Child Development Fund, so I was very pleased to meet Phoebe and hear her speak about what she had learnt when she addressed a Rotary lunch.

What do you see when you look at a child with Cerebral Palsy? Someone whose body is too small for his age, can’t get around like a `normal’ child, and cannot communicate with you? Or do you see a normal child who is trapped in a body which restricts him from fulfilling his potential?
How anyone cares for such a child depends very heavily on how they see him. And how they see him and care for him inevitably means that he either remains trapped in his almost useless body, or he is freed from many of the restrictions that hold him captive. We had that choice when Chen came to Xining Children’s Home five years ago.

In Hong Kong it should mean justice for all who labour. Disappointingly, those without a voice sometimes cannot find justice here.
What follows is a 'good news, bad news' story... the sort of story that would give you nightmares if it happened to you or someone you know.

It never ceases to surprise me how we can start doing something new for a good cause, and before we know it the good grows and grows. In our experience in Christian Action, it's usually growing children who benefit by runaway good causes!
We held our first walk because we wanted to meet our regular donors face-to-face, since they are the ones who are so faithful in carrying out the good deed of helping someone less fortunate than themselves.
