Thank you for supporting HER Fund in 2024

2024 marks HER Fund's 20th Anniversary and here are some of our achievements in this fruitful year!

Hosted 20th Anniversary Fundraising Luncheon: Walk Further Together
It was a full house! Our grantee partners Maria from Virtuous Lady Club and Zoe
from Free Periods HK shared their journey walking with HER Fund, emphasizing the importance of a seed grant and capacity building. Our grantee partner Grassroots Future performed belly dance and shared their empowering story. We raised over HKD$220K to support the most vulnerable women and girls in Hong Kong.
Thank you our sponsors for supporting this event!

Kickstarted General Grant 2024/25
With support from The Robert H.N Ho Family Foundation, we granted 5 organisations with comprehensive capacity building and accompaniment, including The Association for the Advancement of Feminism (in collaboration with Onebookhalf Gender Space), Gender Empowerment, Les CornerUnion of Nepalese Domestic Workers in Hong Kong and Women In Sports Empowered Hong Kong(WISE).

Launched Empowering Diversity Grant - A Special Initiative for Ethnic Minority Women in Hong Kong
With support from The Hong Kong Club Foundation, we provided seed funding to grassroots organisations working with or led by ethnic minority women, strengthened the organisational capacity of 3 NGOs and women leaders from ethnic minority communities (Refugee Union, Grassroots Future Self-Love Cupid and Community Cultural Concern). 80 members of their respective communities benefitted from their projects.

Organised 3 HER Hub Workshops
We organised "Sharing Session on Transformative Feminist Leadership: How to Take the Organisation Further", "Financial Management Workshop" and "Intersectionality Workshop" to build organisers' leadership, organisational resilience and sustainability.

Since our founding 20 years ago, we remain the only community women’s fund in Hong Kong, promoting the rights of women and transgender people through grantmaking and capacity-building. We understand that social change does not happen overnight, so continuous and flexible funding is very important for the work of different groups. We couldn't have done it without your generous support!

Thank you again for your support over the past year, and w
e look forward to your continued support in 2025!
