Objective
The objective
of the Fund Raising Group is to generate funds to support various
initiatives undertaken by the Education and Prevention Group and
Re-integration Group. To achieve this, the Fund Raising Group organizes
a wide range of fund raising initiatives, and the best known of
all events would probably be the Walk Up Jardine House.
In 2006, over 400
Jardines staff, business associates, families and friends, and 70
secondary school students took part in this annual fund
raising event and raised HK$1,550,000, the most raised since the
race was first held in 1985.
The Fund Raising
Group also works closely with other charitable organizations like
the Community Chest in organizing joint fund raising events to support
other mental health related causes.
