BUSINESS OPERATIONS
業務重點
To promote a greener living environment, we organised 168
environmental activities with participation by over 28,000
residents. These included Tree Planting Day 2016, Recycle for Fun
(Waste-to-Goodies Recycling), the Community Farming Programme,
Used Books Recycling Campaign and a celebration of World
Environment Day.
A total of 211 awards and certificates were granted to us as a
result of our efforts in energy and water saving, as well as waste
management, during the year.
Another caring initiative we undertake is our Housing Society
Community Scholarship programme, first established in 2014,
which encourages secondary school students to pursue academic
excellence. Under this scholarship programme, students living in
the Housing Society estates who achieve good results in the
Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination will each
receive a scholarship of HK$5,000, and those with excellent results
will get an extra HK$5,000.
