Tonight, over 1400 people will sleep on the streets of Hong Kong. We must change this.
‘Invisible Community’: this is in reference to our society’s tendency to look away from those who are experiencing homelessness, even when they’re struggling right in front of our eyes. It is also the name of ImpactHK’s 2023 Winter Appeal. ImpactHK works with people every day to ensure they have a meal, protection from the cold and a friend they can rely on.
That’s why we are asking our supporters: Don’t look away from the problem. By supporting our ‘Invisible Community’ campaign, you will contribute to the invaluable work of our organisation in holistically supporting the community sleeping on the streets this winter.
Our goal is to raise $500K HKD by January 7th so that we can continue to provide warm meals, clothing, and a safe space to those in need.
Every contribution makes a difference. Donate what you can to help us reach our goal!
每晚，超過1400人露宿在香港街頭。 我們需要行動做出改變。
今年我們的冬季籌款主題是「隱蔽社群」，旨在呼籲大眾關注那些被遺忘在街頭的人。他們正經歷著無家的狀態，但人們選擇對他們視而不見。
同路舍每日服務無家者，確保他們有食物、保暖的衣服及一個安全依靠的地方可以繼續生活。
請大家不要忽視香港的無家問題，支持我們的冬季籌款活動，為無家者的生活帶來改善，為冬日的街頭添加一份溫暖。
我們目標在 1 月 7 日前籌集 50 萬港元，以便能夠繼續為有需要的人提供糧食、衣物及照顧他們日常生活的社區中心。你的每一筆捐款都對我們很重要，捐款改變無家者的生命!
