Our Biggest, Most Exciting Store Just Opened!

I love shopping. But that’s not so surprising, because virtually everyone here does - especially when there’s a sale! 😊

‘Shopping’ has a different meaning to many of Hong Kong’s socially disadvantaged communities. This includes: the elderly; disabled; new arrivals; single parents; ethnic minorities; low-income; the unemployed and others. For them, shopping is a never ending daily grind of trying to provide for their loved ones.

Newsflash! We Won More Awards!

We have just been recognized by Hong Kong’s Education Department as the top training institute in all of Hong Kong for helping job-seekers re-enter the workforce!

This commendation is especially satisfying because the bar is so high. The Education Department has a stringent Qualifications Framework (QF) with seven different levels of academic, professional, and continuing education credentials. In our case this meant that every level of each of our classes in each of our service areas, was put through a demanding quality control screening and we came through with flying colors!

I Was Looking Forward To This Day for 9 Years!

Nine years ago Christian Action was at risk of being shut down. Our Headquarters and base of operations for almost 30 years, The New Horizons Building at Kai Tak, was suddenly slated for demolition and we were powerless to stop this action.

Everything that we had laboured for and spent decades developing, from world-class training courses and facilities, including a well-trained staff, to After-School Programmes - was in jeopardy. Many of you partnered with us in faithful and fervent prayer, but the outcome looked very bleak.

Share Food, Share Love

“My husband has just been diagnosed with dementia and I am his sole Carer. This is a tough blow at his stage in life, especially when money is tight. Life does leave me feeling lonely and disconnected at times.

Two years ago a friend introduced me to Christian Action's Choi Wan Centre, and it has become a lifesaver to us. Every weekday we pick up a free bento food box. It’s still hot when we get it home, which saves me both money and time on food preparation!

Another thing that I love about the Choi Wan Centre is that I have made friends with a group of Seniors there and they have become a support network to me. I ask God to continue blessing Christian Action, so that other elderly people like me might have support and care.”

- Fong, a Senior at our Choi Wan Centre
