Delia (Hip Wo) Alumni Association 40^th Anniversary Culture-Interflow Foundation

Charter

Origin: Quality education of the 21^st century encourages students to step out of the school campus to enlarge their vision, and to care for the major issues of the community, of the nation and even those of the world. In so doing they will be cultivated to become good citizens of global visions who are active, positive and responsible. It has always been the mission of Delia (Hip Wo) School to establish a campus of multi-cultures and harmonious integrated education. However, many of our students are new immigrants from China or south Asia, the financial situation of whose families is not quite on the balance. Therefore apart from providing their children with the basic necessities of daily life, it is usually impossible for parents to spare expenses on their children’s after-class activities, not to mention supporting them for culture-interflow activities overseas. The unfavourable situation will be an obstacle to students’ development.

The Association has long been taking heed of the development of the school. We take even greater heed of the learning condition of the students currently attending the school. On learning their problem, the executive committee initiated the establishment of a foundation to sponsor the current students of the school to take part in culture-interflow activities on October 18,2004. The members made some discussion on the issue and finally resolved on the establishment of the foundation.
