When charities work together instead of competing with each other for funds, the people we aim to serve are the ones who really benefit. I'm so glad to once again see this happen when Christian Action and Feeding Hong Kong together served a woman in serious trouble.

I'm sure you all remember marathon runner, Mark MacAlpine, who took up the challenge to raise money for Ji, one of our children in Xining Children's Home.
This year, 2013, was to be the fifth year that Mark undertook this gruelling challenge. He aimed to raise a record HK$150 000 for Ji.But last Sunday we received the shocking news that Mark had been rushed into hospital for emergency surgery.

International Women's Day falls on March 8th, which is why I want to share this video about abused domestic helpers with you. The video was produced by We Care Hong Kong and sponsored by the HKU Class of '84 Social Inclusion Fund. It breaks my heart that there are people in Hong Kong, my beloved city, who abuse workers like this.
I hope that when you view this video you will be moved to share it with others, so that they too will support our programmes to alleviate the suffering of these women. Importantly, we not only help to alleviate suffering, but we also equip these women to resist abuse in the future.

A simple act of kindness can make a world of difference in the life of someone who needs encouragement - and every one of us is able to perform many simple acts of kindness.
In the case of Christina, one of the mentors in our Hong Kong Child Development Fund, it was a simple invitation to play badminton that helped shape the future of a younger person.

Nature sometimes has a funny way of working in with our plans! In late 2012 International Christian Assemblies (ICA) and Christian Action organized a carnival which we called One People One City.
Our aim was to raise funds so that we could build bridges of friendship with the people of Tin Shui Wai. But on the day we almost needed more solid bridges than that!
