We are truly humbled by how many people came last Sunday March 15 to the 10th Step2000, despite the current challenging conditions with the Coronavirus affecting Hong Kong and the rest of the world. Families, children, old friends, new friends all came...and of course Sky, the lovely dog.
On the day itself, we raised about HK$18,620. Since then, some more donations have been trickling in from generous people and we are currently standing at around HK$23,420 (and JPY3,000).
We will keep collecting your kind donations until the last day of March, after which we shall submit the donations to the 'Akai Hane' (translates approximately to 'Red Feather') programme, established to help affected children continue their schooling and complete their education.

One more thank you goes to the kind team who took the opportunity to clean the trail - they brought a bag which they filled with garbage collected along the way!
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you!
