Oct 2023 Fengkai Mission
The Fengkai mission, which had been suspended for three years due to the epidemic, was finally completed in mid-October. In this mission, we organized a team of more than 60 medical and non-medical volunteers to complete 60 surgeries, some of patients came for secondary repair surgeries. The surgeries bring them new life and new changes. Without your support, the mission would not be possible. Taking this opportunity, we sincerely thank all units, including local government officers, Dr. Leung and the staffs of Fengkai Hospital; volunteers from local and overseas, and all donors for their great assistance and support. And we would like to express our special thanks to our sponsor, [Henderson Land Group], for their great support and generous donation. At the same time, we would also like to express our heartful thanks to the 15 teachers and students of [Chinese International School] and the 4 volunteers of the [CLP Power Hong Kong Limited] for their selfless dedication of time and love and their participation.
