In Hong Chi, we believe people with intellectual disabilities are uniquely talented that they can excel themselves in sports, the arts, music and even at work when they receive needed training and opportunities. Your love and support can help them pave the way for their success!

The Hong Chi Climbathon is our annual charity stair run which aims to raise funds for our non-subvented projects, such as our training hotel, supported employment services, meal-subsidy plan, public education programmes and other much needed services. These services are essential not only to facilitate the development of our students and trainees, but also to promote public acceptance towards people with intellectual disabilities.

The event also provides an important platform for both people with and without disabilities to get to know each other. Runners can form an integration team with Hong Chi students and trainees in the race. Guests and runners can also gain a better understanding of the artistic talents of our students and trainees through their performances on the day of the event.

The 7th Hong Chi Climbathon will be held on 9 October 2010 (Sat) and the race is open for enrolment now. For Corporations / Organisations that may not be able to actually run on the day of the event, the “Count Your Step” Relay is the next best option for you and your colleagues who can enjoy the benefits of exercise and who can support people with intellectual disabilities to lead a fulfilling life!
