Flag Day

For the first time in our more than 40 year history, The Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups will host its first ever Flag Day. To be held on 29 May, the Flag Day will be a new effort to introduce the Federation to the wider public, while also soliciting financial support from the community.

The money raised from the Flag Day will support the Federation, not only in its ongoing programmes and projects, but also help it to develop new initiatives to meet the constantly changing needs of young people. You can read more about the Federation's professional and diversified services below.

We call upon all our friends and partners to support this effort. Not only will we gratefully welcome your generous donations to help us meet our target goal of HK$ 2 million, but we also call on you to help in other ways.

You can help us sell flags by providing staff. You can help us distribute the money collection bags amongst your staff prior to Flag Day for early donations. You can help provide or distribute prizes, souvenirs and even food and drink to the Flag sellers. In all, we are looking for at least 10,000 volunteers to help sell Flags. Find a way that suits you, but please, do join with us!

Please call our Partnership Office at 2123 9598 to learn more.
